Description
Summary of the new feature / enhancement
As part of https://github.com/PowerShell/DSC/issues/412 we would want to enable rendering a complete config that includes other config files. Some considerations:
- needs to be done recursively as an included config may itself include another config
- render in execution order based on
dependsOnto show the sequence top to bottom - probably expose as a new
Resolvecapability forGroupandAdapterresources to implement
Proposed technical implementation details (optional)
