Description
Specifying an unknown group name on poetry export results in no error whatsoever. E.g.
poetry export --without gibberish && echo OK
poetry export --with gibberish && echo OK
IMHV, unknown group names, at least most of the time, imply typos and should result in an error.

Research direction
Start at the poetry export command implementation and reproduce the behavior with the --without gibberish and --with gibberish examples. Trace how group names are handled, then add coverage showing that unknown names produce an error rather than successful export; compare the related Poetry issue for expected behavior.
