Before submitting the bug

  • Ensure you are able to reproduce it on the latest released version (we release often)
  • Verified this bug is not already reported in an issue
  • Verified errors are not related to permissions
  • Can reproduce in a clean PowerShell session (clean = powershell -NoProfile)

Describe the bug
The "DatabaseTimestamp" metadata field is only filled in when a fresh backup is taken, not when using existing backup files to generate an image.

We can use the global output variable feature of Restore-DbaDatabase to capture this field more robustly.

This also introduces necessary data for #172

To Reproduce
Create an image from an existing backup file, then check the database/json files to see a "null" DatabaseTimestamp value for the image.

Expected behavior
The DatabaseTimestamp field reflects when the backup was taken, regardless of how the image is generated.
