Provide Accelerator systems administrator ability to see & set Incremental Update RSG controls

With Incremental Update now being in it's own resource sharing group (V4), the resource management controls (visible to the systems admin) is ambiguous and not flexible. 1) It does not include the relative percentage impact of the new IU resource group. 2) It does not provide the sys admin the ability to change this. There's actually a 3rd, more important issue in there's currently no means to prioritize the different DB2 subsystems within the new IU resource group (RFE 37063 is already opened for this).

What's required is the ability for administrators to specifically set resource sharing group (Min/Max) for Incremental Update, similar to controls they have for the DB2 subsystems (via configuration console). This would alleviate them having to manually compute what the real values are assuming IU is involved.
Note: This has been discussed with Daniel Martin.
