SmartTimestampConverter class

Smart timestamp converter that handles multiple formats and contexts.

This converter is the recommended choice for use with BaseFirestoreModel. It intelligently handles:

• Firestore Timestamp objects
• Cloud Functions Map format ({_seconds, _nanoseconds})
• Milliseconds since epoch (int)
• ISO 8601 strings

For serialization (toJson), it always returns milliseconds, and BaseFirestoreModel will handle conversion to FieldValue.serverTimestamp or Timestamp based on the context and field configuration.

Example:

@SmartTimestampConverter()
final DateTime? createdAt;

@SmartTimestampConverter()
final DateTime? updatedAt;
