Cause

This is a bug of the AS400 Agent 12.3.8

An issue has been solved in which the AS/400 Agent aborted occasionally when starting or recovering a job. The following issues have also been solved:
- Agent abort when CP_LIST is empty
- Agent abort when jobs get recovered after restart
- Jobs with status MSGW get automatically answered (end unexpected)
- accept default values for SBMJOB (like *USRPRF)
- ignore priority 99 for AS400 Jobs
- improve error handling when starting jobs or collect spools
- main class is missing for Installer.jar
