* -WBLOCK at the command line, as AutoCAD runs it

WBLOCK had only its JSON form, so a script's -WBLOCK did nothing: the
objects it should write and erase stayed in the drawing. This adds the
command-line command, with AutoCAD 2024's prompts:

- "Current settings: Object conversion=Delete", then the output file. A
  name without .dwg or .dxf gets .dwg. A DXF file asks for its decimal
  places first. A file that exists asks "... already exists, do you want
  to replace it? [Yes/No] <N>"; No ends the command.
- An existing block by name, "=" (the block named as the file), "*" (the
  whole drawing), or Enter for objects. A name that isn't a block is
  answered Block "NAME" not found. and asked again.
- For objects: the base point (with mOde), then the objects, which are
  written and erased. AutoCAD erases them whatever mOde says, and keeps
  Delete as the setting. Nothing selected writes nothing.

Its JSON form, -wblock, erases what it writes. WBLOCK's JSON form moves
into the new module unchanged, sharing the writer. The web build refuses
-WBLOCK rather than erase objects it can't save.

* -WBLOCK's JSON form: nothing to write writes no file

With no handles, an empty selection or only handles of objects that
aren't there, the JSON form wrote an empty drawing. It now refuses with
"no objects selected" before writing or erasing anything, as the command
line writes nothing when nothing is selected.

* -WBLOCK: only Yes replaces an existing file

At "... already exists, do you want to replace it? [Yes/No] <N>", any
text starting with "y" counted as Yes, so "yodel" replaced the file, and
any other text ended the command. Now only the Yes keyword replaces it,
No and Enter end the command, and anything else gets "Invalid option
keyword." and the prompt again.

* WBLOCK and -WBLOCK write their file through a temporary file

Replacing an existing file truncated it first, so a write that failed
part way lost it. The file now goes through atomic_write::write_atomic,
as SAVE, EXPORT and autosave write theirs.
