[FEATURE] Expose release dates of current and latest releases in metrics #273

Description

@nabadger

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

In my-use case I find that version-checker reports most images as behind out of date (expected for now..), which means I need to use some other data to help determine what order we go after upgrades.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be great if the metrics could expose release dates for the current and latest version of the app. I could then diff this and create an ordering (based on how out of date the release is).

Semver alone can't really offer the same thing here, because it depends on the release strategy of the application in question, plus you can't just diff the 2 semver versions to get a count of releases in between.

I think i would favour date difference over number-of-releases-behind (when looking at current vs latest).

Describe alternatives you've considered

https://outdated.sh/ is interesting, but I think it's only a cli tool.

Thanks!
