jira_create_issue
Create a new Jira issue. Returns the new issue key and browse URL. ALWAYS confirm with the user before calling — this is a mutating operation. If the user mentions "PROJ-X" they want a comment, not a new issue. Use jira_get_issue first to ensure you have the right project context. Defaults issueType to "Task" if not specified.
