Specifying zEDC compression at the data set level

In addition to the existing T (tailored) and G (generic) options, you can now use the ZR ("zEDC Required") and ZP ("zEDC Preferred") options when specifying the Compaction on the data class. Note that if COMPACTION=Y is specified for a data set, the system level value will be used.
