Support Client certificate (mTLS) when fetching z/OS connect info

Increase security by supporting Data Collector to authenticate towards z/OS connect with Client Certificate. Today only basic auth with userid/password is supported.

    After discussing further with the client and the development team, we now have a better understanding of the requirement.

    This RFE needs to be moved back to accepted by us so it can be developed later.

    We have re-evaluated this requirement. Security improvements that were delivered in ADDI 6.1.4 have satisfied this requirement.

    Thank you for taking the time to suggest an enhancement to our product. Many of our product enhancements result from feedback from our customers, so your input is always very important to us. We feel this is a valid requirement but delivery within the RFE 2 year window is not likely. Please resubmit in 12-18 months for reconsideration if still valid. Again, thank you for your suggestion and continued support.
