Add JWT option to Step 6.4. Configure SSO with z/OSMF for Web API setup

This step requires to input the zosmf LTPA keys file name. IZBR/ZOSMF also supports use of JWT, but the workflow only supports use of LTPA.
In "review instructions" panel that follows, it does mention "If z/OSMF is configured to use some other authentication mechanism, ensure the file is modified.."
Can this step be enhanced to choose between LTPA and/or JWT so server.xml can be generated with the JWT feature tag and the jwtsso tag? 

The feature tag is straight forward. <feature>jwtSso-1.0</feature>

The jwtsso tag contains a few variables: 
<HOSTNAME> can be susstituted with the hostname created in step 6.3. Create Web API TLS Certificate
expiresInSeconds is something each customer can have different requirements for (so needs input field in the workflow)
useLtpaIfJwtAbsent can be set to true or false, based on if client selects to setup LTPA too.


<!-- Configure JWT Single Sign On  -->                                                                           
<jwtSso cookieName="jwtToken" jwtBuilderRef="IZBRBuilder" includeLtpaCookie="true" useLtpaIfJwtAbsent="???" />  
<jwtBuilder id="IZBRBuilder" issuer="IZBR" keyAlias="<HOSTNAME>" expiresInSeconds="????"/>         
<mpJwt id="myMpJwt" issuer="IZBR" jwksUri="https://<HOSTNAME>:2100/jwt/ibm/api/IZBRBuilder/jwk"  />
