Module for pure (non cached) requests to JIRA service
JIRA authentication is configured in branches.json under jiraServers.
Personal Access Tokens use authScheme: "Bearer" and can be stored directly in authTok.
PasswordEncoder-protected hex values are auto-detected; set authTokEncoded only to force a mode.
Legacy Basic auth remains available with authScheme: "Basic" and a base64 user:password token.
If authScheme is omitted, encoded tokens default to Basic for compatibility and plain tokens default to Bearer.
