AUTOCATC variables for skeleton tailoring

The variables created by the AUTOCATC function are available for use in skeleton JCL.

When skeleton JCL is submitted, these variables can be used by the ACT_JOB keyword in the AUTOCATC function. Other functions create a slightly different set of variables.
