zappbuild Assembler.groovy DD updates

For Assembler.groovy to work in my environment  I have had to make the following modifications. I think these for fit nicely into the zappbuild application

We use SYSTERM linkedit parm and would like it to optionally print along with the other printlin (stdout) output at execution time

We concatenate SYSIN files ahead of the member being assembled. this can be 1 - x lib(members). An assembler_PreSYSIN list would be useful assembler_PreSYSIN=lib.one.sysin,lib.two.sysin,lib.three.sysin. if this parm is not null these would be concatenated in order ahead of the SYSIN member

    zAppBuild is supported via the open source community. Please feel free to contribute to the community here. https://github.com/IBM/dbb-zappbuild or you can also create an issue in https://github.com/IBM/dbb-zappbuild/issues for the IBM DevOps Acceleration Team (DAT) that contributes heavily to zAppBuild will take a look at your suggestion and will act on it.

    I am closing this idea. Please feel free to add more context and re-open it, if the idea has DBB related requirements.
