Description
Command line export of a project file into different audio settings, based on file extension.
```
lmms export project.mmpz project.ogg
lmms export project.mmpz project.mid
```
Will this be useful?
I believe at least 2 benefits of it, if implemented. First, project conversion is made easy without loading the full GUI components. It might be used to automate the conversion/rendering process. Second, it opens opportunities of live-editor like mode for the website to render a .mmpz file.
For example, there are several [projects](https://lmms.io/lsp/?action=browse&category=Projects&sort=date) that could be converted into automatic audio "preview".

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating LMMS's command-line handling and export/rendering paths, then determine how project.mmpz should select audio settings from .ogg or .mid output; done means both example commands work without loading the full GUI and are covered by tests.
