Fetch the cameras's timestamp associated with an image #38

Add an option to fetch the timestamp of when the frame acquision was triggered along with the image. This is useful for applications that require very accurate timestamps when the camera supports PTP IEEE-1588 synchronization.

This timestamp is grabbed using the Basler pylon API's chunk feature.
