Set completion timestamp when modifying tasks

See original GitHub issue

Describe the solution you’d like Currently, marking a checkbox as completed from a Dataview appends [completion:: todays-date]. For my workflow, I like to estimate the time tasks take, and mark the completion time of them to see how long it actually took. For me, I’d like to be able to configure the auto-completion further to add the timestamp [completion:: todays-date timestamp:now]

Describe alternatives you’ve considered Due to no text editing allowed within the Dataview, I have to navigate to the note where the checkbox is and add the time completion myself.

@mt-krainski templating solution has merged and I’ll release it after testing it works this evening - this lets you use luxon templating which includes being able to set timestamps up to the millisecond.

@dmastylo, do I understand correctly that you want the the completion field to include not only the date but also the time?
