Increase maximum length of "otheropts" in Debug Profile Service API

We are trying to use Debug Profile Service API to automate the DTCN profile creation, but found the maximum length of "otheropts" is only 80 characters.

This is not enough as we have a number of environment variables required to input for code coverage generation, e.g. the listing pds location (which can be max. 30 characters).

for example:

ENVAR("EQA_STARTUP_KEY=CC,EQA_DBG_V4LIST=//'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'")


So can this tag's maximum length be expanded or any other suggestion?

    This feature has already been implemented in 15.0. As this is a major change, we have no plans to backport this feature to earlier versions as it needs to be contained at the version boundary.
