This patch puts the code examples of the dump plugin into code-blocks in
the documentation. By that, the documentation is easier to read.

This patch adds the option --resolve-env to the dump plugin.
When enabled, all variables in the 'env' section of the kas config file
are set to the captured value (at time of executing the dump plugin).
This helps to debug build issues on CI runners by precisely capturing
the relevant environment.

This patch adds a flag --resolve-refs to the dump plugin.
Once enabled, all relative refspecs (e.g. branch or tag names) are
resolved and replaced by their exact revision (before patches are
applied).
When re-running kas on the flattened and expanded config file, the build
is executed against exactly the versions of the dependencies that where
used when dumping the configuration. This helps to keep track of build
versions for future use (e.g. reproducible builds) or for
version-tracking tools like renovate.

This patch adds a new plugin 'dump' which resolves all kas config
includes and combines them in a single file. The format of the output
file can either be JSON or YAML. In case of YAML, the generated config
fulfills the kas-config schema and can be used as input to kas again.
In addition, the generated files can be used by external tools to
analyse the dependencies and versions of the project.
While the generated configuration is semantically identical to the
input config, we do not guarantee binary compatibility as especially
YAML provides multiple ways to serialize strings and null values.
Not giving this guarantee makes it easier to evolve and maintain the plugin.
The plugin itself extends the checkout plugin, as referenced repos have
to be checked-out first to resolve cross-repo references. This also
requires, that the declared refspec of all referenced repos can actually
be found and checked out.
