feat: set default current-date for collection_from_items script TDE-1298 (#1196)

### Motivation

As a basemaps developer, I do not want to set many mandatory CLI
arguments.

### Modifications

Added the current date / time as a semi-sane default for the
--current-date command line argument

### Verification

pytest
