Jira Integration commits should populate a custom field or link instead of comment

Currently, Jira integration will always add a comment to the target issue when it is mentioned in a git commit. However, this can make some issues noisy, especially when a jira issues has many related commits.

Instead, optionally, I propose two possibilities:

1. there should be a way of specifying a custom text field that will be appended to with the commit information.
2. each commit will create an issue link to the commit (not sure if this is possible all the time, so the first suggestion would be sufficient).

And there is a third option that is tangentially related:

3. Only post a comment/link to a commit if the commit is in the master branch (and possibly allow the target branch to be configurable).
