Present a more meaningful message when Remote Syntax Check is called with "CTRL+ALT+R" on sequential dataset COBOL sources.

Present the IDz user a more meaningful profesional message when calling Remote Syntax Check with shortcut "CTRL+ALT+R" on sequential dataset COBOL sources.

Currently IDz users receive an unexpected and unclear technical exception error dialog when calling remote syntax check for sequential source datasets using shortcut "CTRL+ALT+R".

The shortcut "CTRL+ALT+R" starts the remote syntax check for window and thus also for a sequential file.

Error Dialog: Problem Occurred

Dialog text:
An internal error occurred during: "Remote Syntax check from editor".
com.ibm.ftt.resources.zos.zosphysical.impl.ZOSSequentialDataSet incompatible with com.ibm.ftt.resources.zos.zosphysical.impl.ZOSDataSetMember

    This issue was fixed in IBM Developer for z Systems 14.0.0.2 and 9.5.1.2 by APAR PI68775 - Remote Syntax Check for sequential DS sources results in RDz exception while a user error message is expected.
