feat(718): issue view: raw response option

[mpalahuta]

#718

Adding --json flag to the jira issue view <KEY> command so that the tool prints the issue contents as plain JSON if the flag is set. This feature allows users to process the issue information with their programs to support various automation scenarios.

I've added an intermediate struct printableIssue to ensure correct null/empty values in the produced JSON, to avoid zero-values like

{
...
  "assignee": {
    "displayName": ""
  }
...
}

Hi @mpalahuta, Thank you for working on this.

I was bit hesitant to support json response but since there are lot of requests for this (and now a PR), I am reconsidering my decision.

Having said that, if we want to go ahead with json response, I think we should send the entire raw json response from the API to the user. That would help us cover most of the usecase reported.

Let me know what you think!

Hey @ankitpokhrel
Thanks a lot for looking into this PR and for the green light on the JSON output - this will be very helpful!

Reg. raw response, sounds great, thanks! I will update this PR on Mon to do exactly that!

hey @ankitpokhrel
I've updated the PR to follow your suggestion of printing the raw API response. Verified on my machine - works as expected.
Please take a look whenever you have a chance, thanks!
