Insert JIRA Issue's Remote Issue Link should include a unique ID attribute.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      Currently the HTML inserted into a Confluence page using the Insert->JIRA Issue macro is like this:

      <span class="jira-issue">
        <a style="..." href="https://jira.42lines.net/browse/XYZ-1234">
          XYZ-1234
        </a> 
        - Issue Description - 
        <span class="jira-status">OPEN</span>
      </span>
      

      And the remote issue link is like this:

      https://wiki.42lines.net/display/EXAMPLE/Test
      

      It would be better if the HTML and the link included a unique "id" attribute (aka anchor) so that when there are a lot of JIRA issues referenced from a wiki page:

      <span class="jira-issue">
        <a id="jira-issue-XYZ-1234-1" style="..." href="https://jira.42lines.net/browse/XYZ-1234">
          XYZ-1234
        </a> 
        - Issue Description - 
        <span class="jira-status">OPEN</span>
      </span>
      

      And the remote issue link is like this:

      https://wiki.42lines.net/display/EXAMPLE/Test#jira-issue-XYZ-1234-1
      

      If I link to the same issue multiple times from the same wiki page the "-1" on the end of the unique ID and multiple Remote Issue Links would be made.

      This way when I click on a remote issue link to a wiki page that is very long, the browser will scroll directly to the place where the JIRA issue is linked to.
