Command to display zCX memory SWAP, DATA and ROOT space usage

There is no command to display how much memory the zCX started task is using, or how much space is being used of the ROOT dataset; determining usage of SWAP and DATA is also difficult.
This is separate from the within-docker commands to display individual container memory and disk usage.
zCX has a very useful azd_resmon message but it only appears if one of the monitored elements reaches 50% - there is no way to invoke it.
azd_resmon: notice MEM: 51 SWAP: 1 ROOT: 17 DATA: 52
A zOS command is requested to display the same information (or more) in the job log on demand.
For example "F zcxstc,DISPLAY,USAGE".
This is similar to how many other zOS applications work.
