IPCS Provide support for Format of STR(LS)

IPCS CBFORMAT -address- STR(LS) does not format the Linkage Stack data at the address provided, but instead formats a different Linkage Stack. Which LS that is formatted depends upon the type of DUMP (e.g. SVCDUMP or SADUMP) and other variables known only to IPCS. Formatting of the LS can be very helpful in dump analysis. IPCS should be enhanced to format the LS requested when an address for the LS is provided.

    The intended implementation would be to treat an input address other than 0 (possibly an input address > 16M) as a control reg 15 value (locating a linkage stack entry) and to format the linkage stack from oldest through that entry.
