feat(editor): add WTAX JSON round-trip authoring workflow

Browse source 
Closes the WTAX open-format loop with --export-wtax-json /
--import-wtax-json, mirroring the JSON pairs added for
every other novel binary format. All 18 binary formats
added since WOL now have full JSON round-trip authoring.

Two top-level arrays mirror the binary layout:
  • nodes[] — nodeId / mapId / name / iconPath / position[3] /
    factionAlliance + factionHorde restrictions
  • paths[] — pathId / fromNodeId / toNodeId / moneyCostCopper /
    waypoints[] each with position[3] + delaySec

Vec3 fields become 3-element JSON arrays for natural
hand-edit. The intra-format graph (paths reference nodeIds)
round-trips exactly so the catalog's connectivity is
preserved.

Verified byte-identical round-trip on the continent preset
(6 nodes + 8 paths covering hub-and-spoke + 3 perimeter
shortcuts, 16 total waypoints).

Adds 2 flags (573 documented total now).
