…l and summary filtering options The following arguments are removed: - '--summary' - '--full' - '--show-added' - '--show-changed' - '--show-removed' The purpose of this tool is to highlight differences between two spdx files. Built-in filtering adds extra logic that dilutes this goal and overlaps with the other tools that already provide their own filtering capabilities. By removing filtering, the tool now focuses on producing a complete and reliable spdx diff, leaving filtering decisions to users or downstream tooling.

The following filtering category arguments have been renamed and converted to boolean options, all defaulting to `True`: - `--show-packages` to `--[no-]packages` - `--show-config` to `--[no-]kernel-config` - `--show-packageconfig` to `--[no-]packageconfig` - `--ignore-proprietary` to `--[no-]packages-proprietary` Signed-off-by: Christophe Guerreiro <christophe.guerreiro@non.se.com>
The filtering option `--ignore-proprietary` has been renamed to `--packages-proprietary` and now follows a new boolean behavior: - `--packages-proprietary` includes proprietary packages (default) - `--no-packages-proprietary` excludes proprietary packages Tests have been updated accordingly to reflect this new option and logic.

…e argument Previously, the tool was printing human-readable text to stdout and generating a JSON file separately. This change enforces the presence of an explicit argument used as the JSON output filename. The console output is now emitted in JSON format by default to ensure consistency and to simplify integration with automated pipelines and tooling.

Tests have been updated to reflect the new command-line interface. The previous `--format json --output` options are replaced with the `--json-output` option, matching the current tool behavior. Signed-off-by: Christophe Guerreiro <christophe.guerreiro@non.se.com>
