Subject: [PATCH] fix: return passed value when setting db row value (#16)

Closes #14

From the example in the issue, this can now be fixed like this:
```php
final public DateTimeImmutable $date_created {
			get  => new DateTimeImmutable($this->get(Fields::DATE_CREATED->value));
			set (DateTimeImmutable $date_created) => new DateTimeImmutable(
			  $this->set(Fields::DATE_CREATED->value,
			  $date_created->format(Database::DATETIME_FORMAT)
			));
}
```
