Feat REST: allow Account ID to be used to update users in branch-restrictions

Sander Mol_4waiwv

The current endpoint of https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/<username>/<repository>/branch-restrictions does not allow for users to be posted by "account_id". Currently, only "username" and "uuid" is supported.

I would expect the following post body to be supported

{
   "type": "branchrestriction",
   "kind": "restrict_merges",
   "value": null,
   "branch_match_kind": "branching_model",
   "branch_type": "development",
   "users": [{
      "account_id": "<account_id>"
   }]
}

This currently results in a successful post, but without a user actually being posted. This is especially relevant now that Account ID is used in more and more places as the preferred identification field.
