Add support for JWT authentication for use in Connect Add-ons #112

It's common for Atlassian Connect Add-ons to use REST to talk to JIRA, so node-jira would be very helpful for Add-ons built using ACE.

Unfortunately it doesn't currently support JWT authentication used by Connect. Adding JWT would allow ACE Add-ons to simplify their code for accessing JIRA.
