(cli): cdk synth need to disable printing the Cloudformation Template to console

[caruso-billfire]

The Question

There should be a way to run cdk synth and disable printing the Cloudformation Template to stdout.
It would make sense for this to work when use --output or for it to be its own flag.

The reason: In our Codebuild logs it is very annoying to have a giant template printed line by line when we are only running the synth to use the --output flag to analyse the Cloudformation Template.

Environment

• CDK CLI Version: all
• Module Version: all
• Node.js Version: n/a
• OS: all
• Language (Version): TypeScript / possibly all
