Adding note about imported objects showing old timestamps and new author

Armin Hergenhan requested to merge master-patch-e4a8 into master

What does this MR do and why?

Describe in detail what your merge request does and why.

A customer came across this when a freshly onboarded developer imported one of our sample projects. The MRs and issues included in this sample all showed in the newly created project as having been created by the freshly created user long before they had a GitLab account.

I think we should highlight that this is expected behavior as this can lead to confusion.

How to set up and validate locally
