Option for modified date rather than create date in power rename #42

Description

@sjsilverman

There are a number of very common situations where the "create date" is not actually the date the file was created.

Example of why needed

After syncing OneDrive to a new computer, create date is changed to the date OneDrive was installed. The actual create date becomes date modified.

In this situation, most users who wanted to include date as part of the renamed file name would want date modified, since "create date" has little if any informational value.

Suggestions:

(1) give user the option of what file attribute date tokens are pulled from
(2) (more general, but probably a lot more work) enable tokens for more file attributes to be used in name.

Great utility -- thanks
