Allow comments created via the test API to have a specific creation time

For some tests, the exact creation time of a comment matters. In the
past, we used workarounds like TestTimeUtil to fix issues with timing
in tests. Tests using the test API can do better, though. As it's an
API specific for tests, we can support the specification of
creation/update times even though we wouldn't do so in public APIs.

We decided to not use Timestamp as type in the API as:
1) It's a mutable type which should not be used in an AutoValue.
2) It's much more inconvenient to specify and less readable/descriptive
than the types of Java 8's date/time API.
