cloudfront-signer no longer accepts milliseconds for dateLessThan / dateGreaterThan

[darioackermann]

Describe the bug

When using miliseconds to define the expiry of a cloudfront signed url, i.e. specifying dateLessThan, the cloudfront signer throws

Error: dateLessThan is invalid. Ensure the date string is compatible with the Date constructor.

Expected Behavior

Milliseconds should be accepted as they are accepted by the Date constructor
This works in SDK v2 and breaks when upgrading from SDK v2 to SDK v3

Current Behavior

The cloudfront signer throws the above mentioned error because it uses Date.parse and not new Date()
However it is perfectly valid to call the Date constructor with a value in miliseconds

new Date(1000000000000) // Sun Sep 09 2001 03:46:40 GMT+0200 

However Date.parse does not support milliseconds

Date.parse(1000000000000) // NaN

Reproduction Steps

Call

import { getSignedUrl } from "@aws-sdk/cloudfront-signer";
// ...
getSignedUrl({
  url,
  privateKey: privateKeyContents,
  keyPairId: accessKeyID,
  dateLessThan: 10000000000,
});

Possible Solution

Either of this would suffice

1. Change the error message to Ensure the date string is compatible with Date.parse() - note that this would be breaking from SDK v2 and needs to be added to Upgrading Guide
2. Handle milliseconds correctly (swap Date.parse() with new Date()? unsure if it breaks formats accepted by Date.parse but then it would at least align with docs)

Looks right. Adding to queue.
