support TSSS to work with Web Player on Linux and Automation Services on Linux

According to product document, "Data functions using TIBCO Spotfire® Statistics Services are not supported in Web Player or Automation Services on Linux."

https://docs.tibco.com/pub/spotfire_server/12.0.0/doc/html/TIB_sfire_server_tsas_admin_help/server/topics/running_web_player_or_automation_services_on_linux.html

As far as I have tested, actually TSSS seems to work fine together with Web Player on Linux and Automation Services on Linux.

So I consulted TIBCO support and the response was,

=====================================

~~~

We have discussed this with our Spotfire developers in Engineering.

It is not supported because that configuration (URL communication between TSSS and either (1) Web Player on Linux or (2) Automation Services on Linux) has not been thoroughly tested.

~~~

Details:

````````

Spotfire clients (Analyst, Web Player, Automation Services) installed on Windows are .NET Framework applications.

Web Player and Automation Services clients installed on Linux are .NET 6 applications.

The client-side library that enables URL communication with TSSS was developed and tested for .NET Framework, which only runs on Windows.

At this point, that communication library has not been formally tested in QC for use with .NET 6.

The DLLs for .NET Framework and .NET 6 might be similar enough to enable success with your test cases.

As long as your test cases don't make the client-side communication library use any classes or methods that exist in .NET Framework but not in .NET 6, it may continue to work.

But this does not mean you can depend on that client-side communication library to work properly on Linux in all use cases.

For this reason, it is not currently supported to use TSSS with either Spotfire Web Player for Linux or Spotfire Automation Services for Linux.

=====================================

We still have some customers using TSSS with open source R and Matlab or SAS, please add this function.
