Support msgpack Timestamp type in in_forward.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, in_forward supports only custom EventTime type for precious timestamp. But msgpack added Timestamp ext-type after forward protocol added EventTime.
Timestamp has these merits:
- It doesn't have 2038 (or 2242 in uint32) year problem.
- Since it is msgpack official, it is more easy and efficient in some languages.
Describe the solution you'd like
in_forward support Timestamp for timestamp.
For compatibility reason, out_forward should not use Timestamp yet. (or opt-in).
