Module output 

Output formatting for CLI commands

Supports three output formats:

• JSON: Structured output for programmatic use
• Text: Human-readable formatted output
• Compact: Minified JSON for piping

Mitigations Addressed

• M19: JSON output uses serde with preserve_order for consistent field order
• M20: Text output includes helpful context and suggestions
