Add National Language Support for Danish to EWM client for input to fields that require z/os member names

In the Enterprise "Data Set Definition" editor, it is not possible to enter national characters in the "Member" field. This prevents creating a translator, which is executing a program with "special" characters. For example it is not possible to create a CICS translator for Assembler, as it is named: DFHEAP1$ in IBM codepage 037, but in Danish IBM codepage 278 it is called DFHEAP1Å. As the $ sign in US is changed to Danish national character Å. Entering DFHEAP1$ results in a S806 (program not found) error on host, as it looks for the "wrong" name.

I had edited the program name but that was not necessary.

    Please note that the CICS translators uses "special" characters in their program names, ie: DFHEAP1$
    This makes the CICS translation unavailable for all installations which is configured to use a codepage, which has moved the $ in relation to the CP 037 bitset.
