Japanese CodePage IBM-1390/1399 support

For IDz V15 and earlier, we can use the Japanese code page IBM-1390/1399 with code conversion for text data when accessing resources on z/OS such as MVS datasets and Unix file systems from IDz client.

But for IDz 16, we can not set IBM-1390/1399 for Unix file.
Fixed APAR PH53829 allows us to use IBM-1390/1399 only for MVS dataset with IDz V16.
Please refer to the following cases for details.
Case: TS012269186 - IBM Developer for z/OS V16 - CodePage IBM-1390/1399 support
Case: TS013667578 - IBM Developer for z/OS V16 - CodePage IBM-1390/1399 support 2

We think codepage IBM-1390/1399 should be available with IDz V16 same as V15.

    Please note that in the upcoming version of IDz, users will be able to edit IBM-1390/1399 UNIX files so long as they are uploaded and downloaded in text-mode (as opposed to binary).
