Enable external Include and Exclude lists for Backup and Restore

The Include and Exclude criteria for Backup and Restore commands can become very large, sometimes exceeding the maximum length for the parameter. Backup and Restore syntax should be enhanced to select a DD which can be used to point to a flat file containing the dataset lists to be included or excluded. This can make the JCL easier to manage. The maximum number of possible entries should be increased as well.
