ALLOW_AUTO_RESTART - USAP configuration option

Description

The ALLOW_AUTO_RESTART option specifies whether or not a RESTART option value of auto will be allowed.

ALLOW_AUTO_RESTART provides some protection from the incorrect use of the RESTART auto value. When ALLOW_AUTO_RESTART is set to the default value (no) in the configuration file, it takes a conscious effort to override the option for a given command.
