GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 774340
date on m4a (itunes) files not returned correctly

I noticed contentCreated on m4a files (specifically from itunes) is bogus. Turns out this is a known problem with gstreamer qtdemux: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=731029#c14 Tracker maybe needs to work around this by only using the GST_TAG_DATE field for now (at least for m4a/mp4 audio).
GStreamer is fixed now, so I guess in time this should be ok (1.16 and up). No need to do anything in tracker at least.
