JIRA: Use folder under JIRA_HOME to store statistics

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. upgrade JIRA
2. observe statistics are lost.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Statistics are stored under JIRA_INSTALL/temp.
This means they will get lost when upgrading.
Unless copied back manually.

Please provide any additional information below.
Would it be possible to use a folder under JIRA_HOME?
This would ensure statistics survice upgrades automatically.

PS. Maybe the same is true for the other atlassian products Confluence, Bamboo, 
...

For Confluence and Jira I do this by setting the Java system property 
"javamelody.storage-directory"  (I'm using JavaMelody 1.42.1)

e.g. in Tomcats setenv.sh:

export JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Djavamelody.storage-directory=/my/path"

So this is a typical RTFM case, sorry about this.

To help people using the plugin for JIRA/Confluence/Bamboo, I have added a note 
about the storage directory in the Atlassian chapter, just before the mail 
reports:
https://code.google.com/p/javamelody/wiki/UserGuide#Atlassian_JIRA,_Confluence_a
nd_Bamboo_Plugin

And system properties can be configured for tomcat in bin/setenv.sh, or in 
conf/catalina.properties
