Description

We would like to allow a user to base their new `config` based on an existing one.
The use case is when different teams use the same service but with different configurations.
I think the best place to add this is in the `Create Config` form on the second stage, to add a search section to select a `config`. Upon selection the user will see the config values and will be able to alternate between configs with the same `schema`.

Research direction

Start in the Create Config form's second stage and inspect how configs with the same schema are loaded and displayed. Done means a user can search for an existing config, view its values, and switch between compatible configs when creating a new one.
