Description

Summary of the new feature / enhancement

We would like to have built-in ARM consistent formatting for "get --all" results. The results should look like the "resources" section of a template:

[
  {
    "name": "thisThing",
    "type": "Microsoft.GuestConfiguration/things",
    "kind": "something",
    "apiVersion": "2025-07-04",
    "properties": {
      "foo": "bar"
    }
  },
  {
    "name": "thatThing",
    "type": "Microsoft.GuestConfiguration/things",
    "kind": "otherthing",
    "apiVersion": "2025-07-04",
    "properties": {
      "foo": "baz"
    }
  }
]
Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Research direction

Start by locating the CLI entry point for get --all and the code that formats its results. Compare that output with the template resources structure shown in the issue, then identify existing tests for get output; done means ARM-style formatting is produced consistently for all results and those tests cover it.
