Emit frame id as a hex string when yamlFrameIdAsHex=True (default False). from_dict parses hex-string ids so the export round-trips.
…ortEncoding Add --yamlExportAll/--yamlNativeTypes/--yamlMotorolaBitFormat to canconvert (mirroring the json switches) and remove the duplicate --symExportEncoding option that triggered a click 'used more than once' warning.

JSON is a pretty rubbish format to serialise DBCs as a "working copy", so I converted our code to use YAML as the working format and instantly it was easier to work with (comments, hex and binary as keys and values, whitespace indicating structure).
This is a bit of a refactor of the JSON code to being common to both importers/exporters.
There is also some ArbitrationID functions added to create them from PGNs which I found was such a common use case for us.
Claude Code was heavily used here. Human reviewed and tested.
