Feature: Option to include JSON no matter what #280

It would be nice if a JSON output was provided no matter what (like option 3 when deciding what to do with albums). If I've missed it, let me know!

What would be the difference then besides... just leving the takeout as-is? Fixed last-modified dates?

If think you can achive what you want with something like:

  1. Use gpth with one-big-folder mode
  2. Find all .json files in og takeout (with windows file explorer or something, or terminal)
  3. Select all and copy to output folder - cp **/*.json output/folder/

Sounds good?

I feel like this is exactly the same as the Takeout feature in Google Photos.
