properties: fix bad creation and modification date displayed

Volte--Vieira Philippe requested to merge Melrok/evince:modDate into master

As explained in the issue #1549 (closed), according to pdf spec, creation date and modification date are optional (for pdf documents but others document type don't use theses dates).
I expect a file not to be modified exactly at 31 Dec 1969 23:59:59 UTC, even if someone has modified the information in the file for fun. So each creation and modification date equal to -1 is considered as NULL for the pointers to the other attributes and None is displayed.

The if statements could be used in the future when using GDateDime instead of GTime (a pointer could help, or optional type).

N.B. This is my very first contribution, perhaps I made some mistakes: please tell me!

Closes: #1549 (closed)
