Fixed multiline fields in Slack templates for plain text. ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ

Fixed: Adding multiline fields in JQL section in Slack templates. Works great with plain text now, but rich text elements might not display perfectly due to Slackโ€™s message builder limitations.

Bug

Direct JQL section edits without navigating main template code. โœจ

The enhancement of editing capabilities for JQL section elements, such as the source code of sequential layout, title, description, table properties, and color picker for font colors, has been achieved. Previously, these features were inaccessible due to opening in a pop-up over the JQL section's own pop-up. Users were constrained to customize these settings by delving into the main template's source code, a challenging task for the average user. Now, users can directly customize these elements without the need to navigate through the main template's source code.
