Provides a mechanism to persist all realized configuration, as specified on the command-line (including any serialized config file that's been loaded) to an output file.
This persisted configuration file can be round-tripped to the tool to render the identical analysis configuration.
This allows users to render a very complex command-line, and then to capture it in a single file that can provide a simplified command-line experience (i.e., you simply pass the XML via the -c switch) or so that the detailed configuration can be manually adjusted (for example, to create a specialized min-bar of analysis checks, by disabling certain rules). Currently not all of our settings (and rule disablement is a good example) is available on the command-line.
