create a command allowing to update parameters inside a datastage flow or pipeline in a project

We are requesting an option to cpdctl dsjob command (suggestion) which would allow to change the value of the parameter in the datastage flow or pipeline (not to confuse with a Parameter or Parameter set or environment variable). After migration from 11.7 there are thousands of parameters which need to be modified. We are looking for a way to script these changes.

    Note to Shreya Sisodia from Yarek Rzewuski (Bank of America)

    The issue which we were trying to address originates from the migration of projects from legacy platform and we have several architecture flavors here. 

    Some platform use for example APT_CONFIG_FILE variable to define number of nodes. After migration we have to manually remove that variable and add APT_WLM_PARTITION_COUNT which is our preferred way of controlling number of processing nodes. 

    Other example may be GRID variables from a grid platform. We have a lot of projects and within them a lot of assets which need to be modified. IF there was a command to help us deal with this issue, it would go a long way.
