Create an issue with a type determined by the selection made in the form

After form submission, an issue can be created with the type selected by the user who filled out the form. This feature is enabled in collaboration with the "Populate options" functionality. Therefore, the form element must be populated with values of needed project issue types. A new issue type, represented by a populated form element, is added to the issue type dropdown in the "Create issue" settings. It is indicated by a star icon.
