1. Add field configuration loading …

   Because issue field configuration in JIRA is highly dynamic and customizable,
   Bugjira needs to be able to retrieve field configuration data from an external
   source. This patch adds support for that operation, and also defines a very
   minimal set of field configuration data. The classes in bugjira/field.py will
   be heavily extended.
   
   Once we can make Bugjira aware of the available fields in the associated JIRA
   and Bugzilla backends, we will be able to add support for querying and updating
   those field attributes in BugjiraIssue objects.
   
   The module that loads the field configuration data is designed as a plugin. The
   plugin included in the source code loads json from a local file when the Bugjira
   instance is created. Another approach would be to load field configuration by
   querying a JIRA instance directly, possibly dynamically updating the field info
   periodically or even each time a BugjiraIssue's fields are accessed. These
   alternate field info access approaches could be coded into an external library
   that implements the plugin interface, thus allowing us to decouple the public
   Bugjira code from any user's particular JIRA instance configuration.
