Not Pulling Some Data from KDBX4 File Versions about keepass-rs HOT 5 CLOSED

Sounds great, let's do it! 💪

regarding coding style in Rust, there is rustfmt. Just

1. run rustfmt on the codebase before you do any work
2. if there are changes, commit them separately
3. do your changes in any coding style you like
4. run rustfmt again
5. commit

Regarding the issue itself, let's do #29 first and then follow up with this issue.

Thanks for filing the issue! Probably, there is some difference in the XML formats betwen KDBX3 and KDBX4 that I was not yet aware of.

As a heads-up, I am in a state of being constantly very busy with my day job, so I might not be able to do much troubleshooting on this right now. It might take me some time to fix this.

keepass-rs was one of my first real Rust projects, and I learned a lot in writing it. If you want to take a stab at fixing this yourself, I do think that I would have enough time to mentor.

I think I have found my issue with pulling ExpiryTime from the database for #29 at the very bottom of the official KDBX 4 documentation page:

In encrypted KDBX 4 files (not in plaintext XML exports), all times are now stored as Base64 string of the Int64 number of seconds elapsed since 0001-01-01 00:00 UTC. This improves the performance and reduces the file size.

Note: The file formats look the same when saved/exported as unencrypted XML!

@sseemayer,
I would love to take you up on the mentoring offer as your availability permits. I think I am getting close to having something presentable via a Draft PR for addressing #29 and will definitely appreciate any corrections, commentary, suggestions, etc. I have tried to follow your coding style for a few reasons:

• This is my first Rust coding (also my first GitHub experience) of any significance; and, assuming we complete it, my first real Open Source project contribution.
• I am a firm believer that coding styles should at least be consistent within modules, ideally within projects.
• Hopefully, this will make the code and any later maintenance easier.

Maybe I can track down the KDBX4 issue with Entry::AutoType.sequence after that.

Thank you again!
