Serialize stub for dynamic profiles (#9964)

#9962 was caused by a serialization bug. _Technically_, `ToJson` works
as intended: if the current layer has any values set, write them out to
the json. However, on first load, the dynamic profile `Profile` objects
are actually empty (because they inherit from base layer, then the
dynamic profile generator). This means that `ToJson` writes the dynamic
profiles as empty objects `{}`. Then, on reload, we see that the dynamic
profiles aren't in the JSON, and we write them again.

To get around this issue, we added a simple check to `Profile::ToJson`:
if we have a source, make sure we write out the name, guid, hidden, and
source. This is intended to align with `Profile::GenerateStub`.
