add_worklog doesn't respect the "user" argument.

[reformstudios]

Bug summary

As noted in the code, there's a bug where the add_worklog method only creates a worklog for the currently logged in user (eg an api user) rather than a user specified by name or id. This renders api updates of worklogs rather broken.

Is there an existing issue for this?

Reproduction steps

# 1. Given a Jira client instance
jira: JIRA_
# 2. When I call the function with argument x
jira.add_worklog(user=some_user_id)
# 3.
A worklog is created but assigned to the api user, not the user supplied as an argument in the call.

Expected behaviour

Worklogs should be given the "Author" defined in the add_worklog "user" argument.

same for me, any workarounds?

Issue seems acknowledged on source code:

jira/jira/client.py

# report bug to Atlassian: author and updateAuthor parameters are ignored.

edit: Seems like this parameter is not available on official v2 API
