[Suggestion] Precision on auto import presets and feature request #45

Hi,

This is both a request for clarification on auto import presets as well as a feature request.

The first one is pretty simple - would it be possible to add some kind of timestamp on the auto imported presets - because after a couple weeks, if you did any adjustment to your HUD slots, you may or may not know if the auto imported slots are dated before or after the changes, I had this issue as I uninstalled all my plugins to try and diagnose some game crashes, then after I reinstalled HudManager I assumed that they were reflecting my current HUD setup.

The feature request would be some kind of preset that would simply reflect in real time a chosen HUD slot (which - for some time - was what i thought the auto-import slot presets were). So - it would be some profiles that would automatically be updated whenever the HUD settings for that slot are updated via the game's HUD editor.

It would save some time for people who want to be able to adjust one UI element on their HUD on the fly, and have it reflected without having to remember to overwrite their saved HUD in HUDManager.

The timestamp feature is a simple inclusion, I can include it in the next update.

The other feature seems reasonable, but I will have to take some time to figure out a good implementation for it. In the meantime, including the timestamps should at least signal to people that the auto-import only happens once, so it will help avoid the confusion you ran into.
