Add Find Member option parameter to RUNSQLSTM

Need to be able to specify a source file, such as SRCFILE(QSQLSRC) without a library (hence, *LIBL) and have the command search for the member in QSQLSRC anywhere on the library list. Similar to how Find Member Processing = 1 option of theQUSRMBRD API works today.


Use Case:

When building applications, we may use one library, and then in production a different library is used. Hard-coding the library name means more changes to code and thus additional testing that goes with it. Plus the functionality of *LIBL to search for a source member is a significant advantage.

    IBM believes that the request described has been solved and has been available since at least IBM i 7.2.
