Github releases as Jira releases

[olivernybroe]

Github has a feature for making a release. When making a release you can add a description and if it is a pre-release or not.

It would be amazing if the plugin listened for the github events from this and automatically created JIRA releases in the project based on them.

We currently have setup the deployments events so they are synced nicely.
However as we also do semantic versioning and actually do releases, it would be very nice if we could push these to jira automatically when a github release is created.

It would also be nice if it picked up ticket numbers from the associated commits on the github release and added them into the jira release.

For example, the workflow I am working with is PPW-### Commit message here, I believe this is commonly used in other companies as well.

This would be a very useful feature
