P3A timestamps don't update even when value is changed

See original GitHub issue

Description

Brave.Search.DefaultEngine.4 timestamp doesn’t update even when the value is being changed

Steps to Reproduce

Install 1.20.96 beta build
Keep default search engine during onboarding
Check P3A Value for Brave.Search.DefaultEngine.4 ensure its set to 1 (Google) and sent is set to true
Make note of the timestamp
Change default SE to Ecosia
Check Brave.Search.DefaultEngine.4 P3A metric, successfully updates the value to 7
Keep browser idle for a while and check timestamp, remains same as in step 4 doesn’t update, sent is still set to true

@GeetaSarvadnya thanks for checking this - I think that this behavior is totally expected, because TS update is bound to the upload schedule and not to the value change. So it is updated every time we upload the metric
