Graceful Server Shutdown Via SDSF

The REST server can be gracefully terminated from an SDSF session using standard operator commands. This ensures a clean shutdown, releasing all resources and stopping any ongoing activity without abrupt termination.

The following commands are supported:

/P <job_name> - Issues a STOP command to terminate the job.
/F <job_name>,S - Sends a command to the job requesting a graceful shutdown.
/F <job_name>,s - Alternative syntax (equivalent to the above on z/O).
