Description

### Is there an existing issue for this?

- [x] I have searched the existing issues

### Problem description

FreeCAD have several CLI options, like `--help` and `--version`, and opens a GUI message box showing the requested info.

This doesn't make much sense, as the CLI is made for not needing/wanting a GUI. `--help` and `--version` should print directly to stdout.

### Full version info

```shell
