Fix bd-84: Prevent timestamp churn on idempotent imports

- Add issueDataChanged() to detect when issue content actually changes
- Only call UpdateIssue when data differs from existing issue
- Unchanged issues are skipped to avoid updating timestamps
- Add tests for idempotent import behavior
- Fixes perpetually dirty JSONL after every bd command
