Hi. I noticed that the current method for saving tracks into the user (current_user_saved_tracks_add()) uses the query parameter ids with a list of ids. Not only is this 'deprecated' according to the spotify docs (they recommend using the body). More importantly, this also misses out on a feature to add tracks to the user with added timestamps.

See the documentation: https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/save-tracks-user

It would be nice if the library would support this timestamped_ids feature. Unless I'm missing something and it's already available?
