Description

As a user, I want to be able to create a new project or update (overwrite) my project by importing a project spec (project.yaml) file.
When attempting to create a new project, we should extend the Create new project dialog to allow users to choose if they want to import a project spec file or build from scratch.

To update an existing project, we should add a new action in the project setting that allows users to import a project by specifying the project.yaml file. This process overwrites the existing version of the project with the project spec in the imported file.

Research direction

Start by locating the Create new project dialog and the project settings actions, then trace how project.yaml files are currently parsed or applied. Done means users can choose import or build from scratch when creating a project, and can import a project.yaml to overwrite an existing project.
