[AI-1089] Enable /rest/api/3/groupuserpicker to return inactive users

Feedback Policy:

Our product teams collect and evaluate feedback from a number of different sources. To learn more about how we use customer feedback in the planning process, check out our new feature policy.

The Jira Find users and groups REST API endpoint - /rest/api/3/groupuserpicker - does not bring inactive users on its results.

Additionally, it would be interesting to be able to filter that with a "active": true/false property.

We have received some requests for this feature as it would match some use cases raised by partners.

Suspend a user account on Jira - let's say, "user1"
Call the /rest/api/3/groupuserpicker REST API endpoint using a query that should return this user.
Verify if the inactive user "user1" shows up in the results.

"user1" would be listed in the results with "active": false

...

    "displayName": "user1",
    "active": false,
...

"user1" is not listed in the results

These two API endpoints can be used to retrieve inactive users - however, they are not allowed to be used by Connect apps:
