cmd/dist: flush incomplete lines in -json mode

Currently, if a test prints an incomplete line and then exits, in JSON
mode, the filter we use to rewrite Package lines will keep the last
incomplete line in an internal buffer and never print it. In theory
this should never happen anyway because the test should only write
JSON to stdout, but we try pretty hard to pass through any non-JSON,
so it seems inconsistent to swallow incomplete lines.

Fix this by adding a testJSONFilter.Flush method and calling it in the
right places. Unfortunately this is a bit tricky because the filter is
constructed pretty far from where we run the exec.Cmd, so we return
the flush function through the various layers in order to route it to
the place where we call Cmd.Run.

Updates #37486.
