Tika throws RuntimeException when parsing PPTX with null creation date
----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: TIKA-436
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-436
             Project: Tika
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: parser
    Affects Versions: 0.7, 0.6
            Reporter: rick cameron


When parsing a PowerPoint (XML format) file with a null creation date, Tika 
throws a RuntimeException in MetadataExtractor.extractMetada on the call 

        addProperty(metadata, Metadata.DATE, propsHolder
                .getCreatedPropertyString());

because getCreatePropertyString throws an NPE. (I will report this problem to 
the POI team)

I would like to attack the PPTX file, but this form doesn't appear to allow 
file attachments. Please feel free to contact me at rickDOTcameronATsapDOTcom.
