HanifKoh 37e2b6c928 CLI: let --export-settings - write the merged config JSON to stdout (#15698)
`--export-settings` already writes the merged config as JSON at the
right point in the CLI flow. Passing `-` now writes that same document
to stdout, so scripts can inspect the effective config without a temp
file. This replaces #14605.

- `ConfigBase::save_to_json` gains a stream overload. The file overload
serializes through it before opening the file, so the output format is
unchanged, and a config that cannot be serialized (invalid UTF-8) now
leaves the existing file untouched instead of truncating it.
- On stdout, invalid UTF-8 in string values is written as U+FFFD instead
of ending the process with an uncaught `type_error`. Files keep the
strict behaviour.
- To keep stdout pure JSON, `-` is rejected up front (stderr message,
`CLI_INVALID_PARAMS`, shell status 254) when combined with an action or
transform that can write to stdout or does real work: `--info`,
`--help`, `--orient`, slicing and exporting. Options that do nothing
without a slice (`--uptodate`, `--min-save`, `--pipe`, ...) are still
accepted.
- The one unconditional stdout write on a success path, "skip locked
instance" during arrange, now goes to the log.
- Every other value, including the default `output.json`, behaves as
before.

Tests in `tests/libslic3r/test_config.cpp`: the stream output equals the
file output and keeps the tab-indented format; invalid UTF-8 throws on
the strict path and is replaced when asked; a failed save leaves the
previous file intact.

OrcaSlicer tests

Building, running and writing tests is documented on the wiki, under How to Test.

Two files here rather than there, because coding agents only read what is in the repository:

  • AGENTS.md is the same guidance in short form, and is what an agent working under tests/ picks up.
  • CATCH2.md is the Catch2 reference, including the mistakes that break a test at runtime.
