Issue Update - Implement overrideEditableFlag and overrideScreenSecurity
Problem trying to solve
The jira python library does not support these two query parameters that are useful for updating issues and ignoring the concept of screens or editable field flags (which only really concern users on the application and not service accounts doing maintenance).
They are not parameters for the issue update function in the code: https://jira.readthedocs.io/api.html#jira.resources.Resource.update
Possible solution(s)
It would be nice if these were supported by the library as they are features of the REST API.
They are documented here in the JS Library Jira Cloud: https://mrrefactoring.github.io/jira.js/interfaces/Version2.Version2Parameters.EditIssue.html#overrideScreenSecurity https://mrrefactoring.github.io/jira.js/interfaces/Version2.Version2Parameters.EditIssue.html#overrideEditableFlag
Alternatives
No response
Additional Context
We have automated service accounts doing spring cleaning and maintenance for a project with many fields. They perform actions that we don't want to configure screens or permissions for.
I'm happy to try implementing this myself.
