Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'd love to be able to sort my contacts by creation date and also get the creation date info to use in other systems.
Describe the solution you'd like
If i'm right, alongside REV, a vCard can store CREATED. Could nextcloud contacts create that field if not already present, at creation ?
Describe alternatives you've considered

Research direction
Start by tracing how the Contacts app creates and serializes vCards, then compare the existing REV handling with the requested CREATED field. The work is done when newly created contacts expose their creation date in vCard data and that value supports the requested sorting and integration use cases.
