With Grails 4, the java 8 java.time classes can be used for dateCreated / lastUpdated columns on entities.
This plugin assumes java.util.Date (even for autotimestamping) which breaks the ability to use a class such as java.time.Instant for these fields.
This change uses the GORM timestamp provider used to provide this same functionality.
A limitation in this implementation is it assumes that dateCreated and lastUpdated are the same data type. I can't think of a scenario where someone would want to use different data types for those though.
