Research direction

Start by examining how WinGet currently processes DSC schemas and compare that behavior with the current DSC 3.1 schema. The issue names no files, tests, or entry points, so first identify the relevant schema-processing code and establish which modern schema constructs must be accepted for the work to be complete.
