Expose Firebase or Firebase.ServerValue #2

Wondering if it would make sense to either expose Firebase or Firebase.ServerValue through the plugin.

One use case would be to get a unique timestamp instead of relying on moment in application.

You're right, using moment at this place is kinda useless. I could use Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000) to get my timestamp without relying on moment.

Didn't know about Firebase.ServerValue.TIMESTAMP. Looks interesting as someone could change his computer time to highjack a date.
