Bug: Date Modified not updated if Lint done immediately after changes

[zedtools]

• I have verified that I am on the latest version of the Linter

Describe the Bug

If I make changes to a file, and then trigger a Lint with CTRL+S, the Date Modified property is not updated.

How to Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Configure settings:
   • Lint on save = on
   • YAML Timestamp
     • Date Modified = on
     • Date Modified Key = Modified
     • Date Modified Source of Truth = Changes in Obsidian
     • Update YAML Timestamp on File Contents Update = After 5 seconds
2. Open a file and type some changes that satisfy all the Lint rules.
   • If I stop typing and wait 5 seconds, the Modified property is updated.
   • If I instead press CTRL+S (triggering a save + Lint), Modified is not updated.

Note that if the Lint modifies the file then Modified is updated as expected. However, the problem occurs if the file already satisfies all the Lint rules, so that the Lint does not modify the file. In this case, it seems that Linter forgets the file was previously modified.

Expected Behavior

If the file was modified by typing, then the Modified property should be updated after 5 seconds, regardless of whether a Lint was done in between.
