Timestamps as property values don't land in timestamps table #27

Description

@aviav

Another day, another feature I'd like to have: Timestamps can be used in/as property values, like in

* Example
:PROPERTIES:
:EXAMPLE_TIMESTAMP: [2024-08-14 Wed 07:15]
:END:

If I implement this, my first idea would be to, in addition to parsing the timestamp and adding it to the timestamps table, add a property_timestamps table, inspired by headline_properties, since this is how org-sql tracks one-to-many relationships from what I can tell.

As always, I'd appreciate thoughts on this.

As an aside, I found a Reddit post where somebody started to catalogue places where one can use timestamps in Org Mode, and what difference the place makes to how the timestamp is interpreted.
