[JENKINS-16073] Support for multiple Jira instances

[rantoniuk]

I would like to be able to have the JIRA url, username and password configurable on a per-project basis. We have multiple projects and not all of them track in the same Jira.
Basically, all the info which is in the global config I'd like to be able to override in individual projects.
