4083: Support auth for Jira bug tracker

What version are you running?


2.5.2


Describe the enhancement and the motivation for it.


We use jira as the bug tracker. Since the tracker can be accessed from internet you need to login with username/password without anonymous read-only access.


So RB will get a "permission denied" everytime it tries to read information from jira. RB needs an input field in webadmin to add credentials for given bug tracker.




Please provide any additional information below.


We hardcoded our username/password to hostingsvcs/jira.py as a work-around:


        if not self.jira_client:
            self.jira_client = JIRAClient(options={
                'server': repository.extra_data['bug_tracker-jira_url'],
            }, basic_auth=('user', 'password'))
