Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ProxymanApp/Proxyman/issues/1146

Originally assigned to: @NghiaTranUIT on GitHub.

Description

For the context, when onboarding a new teammate, it's cumbersome to manually export/import each debugging tool's rules (e.g. SSL Proxying, Breakpoint, Map Local, Scripting, ...) via GUI.

To enhance the onboarding process in a mid-size team, one of our customers suggest that it'd be great if they can import/export all settings by CLI.

Thus, the new teammates just need to run $./proxyman_cli import <setting_file> and it's ready to work ✅

Acceptance Criteria

Export / Import all settings by CLI
