Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
batch does not seem to support --dry-run in neither the command line arguments nor the configuration files. I would like to see what would potentially be outputted by all that is to be generated.
Describe the solution you'd like
I think batch should have a --dry-run flag just like generate. The config files do not seem to support a dryRun yaml field, but im not sure it makes sense to include that anyways. If at all, it would mark the configuration as only running a dry run.
Both could be implemented, but I think it makes the most sense to include a --dry-run cli flag to see how the whole batch might turn out.

Research direction
Start by locating the CLI implementation for batch and compare how the generate command handles --dry-run. Verify the expected behavior for batch execution and whether configuration-file support is in scope. Done means batch --dry-run previews all generation results without writing them, with tests covering the command behavior.
