Add JSON output format support to CLI commands

[Hell1213]

Description

Add a --json flag to the new Typer CLI commands (oss-dev-new) that outputs structured JSON instead of formatted text. This enables programmatic consumption of CLI output.

Commands to update

• oss-dev-new discover repos — list of repos with name, url, stars
• oss-dev-new discover issues — list of issues with number, title, labels
• oss-dev-new issues list — formatted issue list
• oss-dev-new analyze — analysis results as JSON

Skills Required

• Python
• Typer CLI
• JSON serialization

Difficulty

Hi @Hell1213,

I would like to work on this issue under GSSoC.

I reviewed the scope and my planned approach is:

• Inspect the new Typer CLI implementation for oss-dev-new
• Identify the output flow for:
  • discover repos
  • discover issues
  • issues list
  • analyze
• Add a --json flag to the required commands while keeping the current formatted text output as the default
• Convert existing command results into structured JSON using stable fields mentioned in the issue, such as repo name, URL, stars, issue number, title, labels, and analysis results
• Use Python JSON serialization in a clean helper if repeated formatting logic is needed
• Ensure JSON output is valid and suitable for programmatic use
• Avoid changing command behavior when --json is not provided
• Add or update tests for both normal text output and JSON output where existing CLI tests are available
• Update documentation/help text if needed

I will keep the PR focused only on JSON output support for the listed Typer CLI commands.

Please assign this issue to me if this approach looks good and it is still available.
