print option to dump target spec as JSON

This lets the user dump out the target spec that the compiler is using. This is useful to people defining their own target.json to compare it against existing targets or understand how different targets change internal settings. It is also potentially useful for Cargo to determine if something has changed with a target and it needs to rebuild things.
