Research direction

Start by reading the original local_configuration_manager implementation in the linked dsc_contrib cookbook and inspect how Chef core resources are organized. Determine the integration and validation work needed to port it as dsc_lcm. Done means core provides dsc_lcm and it ensures the system is in the correct state for running dsc_resource.
