receipt requires a saved --out scene

Error message

receipt requires a saved --out scene

What it means

build() in blender_prop.py requires the --out scene path when --receipt is given, because the receipt records hashes of a saved .blend scene and there is nothing to hash without one.

Solutions

1. Add --out scene.blend when requesting --receipt
2. Omit --receipt if no scene file is needed
