The `ps:scale` command now accepts a `--format` flag that defaults to `stdout` and can be set to `json` to emit the current formation as a JSON array of process type and quantity objects, matching the JSON output the `:report` subcommands already provide. The flag only applies when displaying the current formation; it is ignored when process types are supplied for scaling. When no scale has been set for the app, the JSON output is an empty array.
