Find all instances in a JIRA project where rank and priority disagree

""" Find all issues that have conflicting rank and priority.

This script accepts one argument: a project id. It will search for all issues of a certain type in
that project and print out all instances it can find where one issue is ranked higher than another
while also having lower priority.
