sendDistributionMetricWithDate permission issue

[lclemence]

Expected Behavior

when using sendDistributionMetricWithDate with a valid date and extension is running. It should send the metric.

sendDistributionMetricWithDate(
            'aws.cognito.custom.EstimatedNumberOfUsers',
            nbUsers || 0,
            new Date()
        );

Actual Behavior

I am having a permission issue while my api key secret arn is well setup.

In my case, I could just replace by sendDistributionMetric to make it work. Apparently it passes an invalid date to sendDistributionMetricWithDate to pass through this code

datadog-lambda-js/src/metrics/listener.ts

Line 159 in 9e4af12

this.statsDClient?.distribution(name, value, undefined, tags);

When the date is valid it does a direct call to the api and I get a permission issue.

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

1.sending metric with sendDistributionMetricWithDate and a valid date
