Add DateModified to List All Jobs

Hi Sindre

Would you be able to add the DateModified to the List All Jobs API please?

The purpose is to be able to efficiently keep my local Jobs DB sync'd with simPro. By comparing the DateModified on my Jobs with the DateModified on simPro Jobs I can see which need to be created/updated/deleted.

I know I can get DateModified by retrieving individual Jobs, but this is a huge overhead getting all Jobs, just to get this one field to see which need updating.

Most of the time the sync is handled by the Webhook - but sometimes (for various reasons) we might miss the Webhook events - and then need to resync the DB with simPro.

If the Jobs List contained DateModified it would be a very light-weight way to see any changes we have missed.

thx
