Merge multiple project files into multiple project outputs (MIMO)

Issue: #3742

Description

The new -mimo command-line argument allows merging multiple files with the same prefix into separate output files. Files are matched based on their prefix before the first dot (e.g., prj1.sonar.cc.json and prj1.git.cc.json are matched because of the common prj1 prefix). If a file cannot be matched, the program suggests similar file names with a Levenshtein distance of less than 3 to help the user identify potential typos. This ensures a more flexible and error-tolerant merge process.
