Support to JCECCARACFKS certificates on EQAPROF

In case TS012216270 we are told that the EQAPROF does not support RACF certificates with the key in PKDS (JCECCARACFKS) only JCERACFKS.

I think it would be a good idea to add that support since we have customers who use a single SITE type certificate for all their products (CICS, z/OS Connect, Rsed, TN3270, Debug for z/OS ....) and this prevents us from storing the key in hardware with the loss of effectiveness that this entails.

    The solution of creating a specific certificate for EQAPROF is not viable since the certificates are issued by an external entity (Digicert, VeriSign, ..) and this would imply an additional cost
