Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the existing JSON configuration handling and the DSCv3 resource integration, then determine how a JSON schema, Windows embedded manifest, non-Windows external manifest, and CurrentUser/AllUsers scopes should fit; done means PS7 settings are configurable through DSCv3 on all supported platforms.
