Rationale for this change
Currently, the Swift implementation of Arrow does not support Timestamp, although they are available in the base C interface. This PR attempts to add its support by following the current implemented design pattern.

Yes - users can now work with Timestamp data types in Swift Arrow implementations. This is additive and doesn't break existing functionality.
