I would suggest that we get a parameter to the Edit issue method (/rest/api/<version>/issue/) that allows us to create or edit an issue without adding an entry to the history of the issue.

This would be similar to the already present updateHistory parameter although this new parameter would be for the issue being edited.

The reason for this function request is that we have bots that continually updates our issues several times on a day and this creates a lot of entries in the history tab. All of these bot-entries makes it almost impossible to view the history tab because of slow loading and it's hard to spot changes done by anyone else than the bot.
