Description

Currently to create a Jira ticket and assign it to yourself (or someone else) you need two Hookshot commands, and they can't easily be chained since the 2nd needs the task number returned by the first.

```
!jira create Task "Testing Hokoshot" "This is a description" label1,test
!jira assign ABC-1234 twilight
```

It would be nice is there was an option on `!jira create` to assign immediately

Research direction

Start by locating the !jira create command and the existing assignment handling used by !jira assign. Determine how the create command parses options and performs the Jira request; done means a create invocation can include an assignee and assigns the newly created ticket without a second command.
