Description
Current Limitation
Saving a Parse Object fails if I try to edit or set the createdAt attribute, the Readme mentions that the maintenanceKey lets you edit these attributes but there is no docs about that or the maintenanceKey in general
Feature / Enhancement Description
Add a "useMaintenanceKey" attribute in Parse.Object.save / saveAll that allows editing createdAt and possibly updatedAt
Example Use Case
Many apps use the createdAt field in their UI and Parse Queries and when you accidentally delete an Object and need to restore it or when you need to import data from exports (ie. importing a user's history from a competitor app) there is no way for you to set the createdAt prop
Alternatives / Workarounds
Using mongodb directly but it is highly impractical and requires implementing a complete MongoDB client and new functions that won't even be able to trigger Parse Hooks and so on...
