Update zoau mvscmd to support --cmd= for tso commands

The zoau mvscmd supports the --steplib= for a --pgm=program. Please add an option to invoke a tso command such as --cmd=command and then the --args= would be parameters passed to the tso command.

This would fill the void the default tsocmd lacks as it does not support a steplib option.

    Thank you for your idea submission. After careful consideration, there are no intentions to include additional tsocmd capabilities into mvscmd. ZOAU's mvscmd is intended for batch type operations only. If you need tsocmd to be enhanced, please consider filing a new idea in the z/OS ideas portal since that team owns the tsocmd capability.
