/**

  @brief Abort, ungracefully
  @details Will abort with a straightforward %abort if the condition is true.
 
  Not advised in SASjs web services: %abort gives the program no opportunity to
  capture the failure and return it to the client, so the caller sees a failed
  request with no message.  Use mp_abort.sas in that context - it writes the
  standard SASjs abort JSON (message, calling macro, SYSCC and a log extract) to
  _webout before ending the step.
 
  @param [in] mac= (mf_abort.sas) Name of calling macro (is printed to the log)
  @param [in] msg= ( ) Additional string to print to the log
  @param [in] iftrue= (%str(1=1)) Conditional logic under which to perform the
    abort
