Remove reliance of the IZUFPROC as the default logon procedure to be used for RESTAPI_FILE statement in IZUPRMxx Parmlib member

Under zOS 3.1, using the zOS Change Tracker plugin for zOSMF and NOT having IZUFPROC as the logon procedure to be used for the RESTAPI_FILE statement in IZUPRMxx Parmlib member, results in an error message as follows - 

IKJ56712I Abnormal command.. IKJ56716I TSO info
TSO output
EX '...' 'SHOW=UNIVERSE'
IKJ56716I EXTRANEOUS INFORMATION WAS IGNORED: 'SYS1.SCYGINST(CYGCMD
IKJ56712I INVALID KEYWORD, '
IKJ56703A REENTER THIS OPERAND -

Assuming that IZUFPROC will be defined and available on a Customer's system is incorrect. For example, IZUFPROC may not conform to any required site naming standards for logon procedure names.

The zOS Change Tracker Plugin in zOSMF needs to provide the capability for the Customer to specify what logon procedure is to be used.
