    .DESCRIPTION
        Imports a json configuration file into the configuration system.
 
    .PARAMETER Path
        The path to the json file to import.
 
    .PARAMETER ModuleName
        Import configuration items specific to a module from the default configuration paths.
 
    .PARAMETER ModuleVersion
        The configuration version of the module-settings to load.
 
    .PARAMETER Scope
        Where to import the module specific configuration items form.
        Only file-based scopes are supported for this.
        By default, all locations are queried, with user settings beating system settings.
 
    .PARAMETER IncludeFilter
        If specified, only elements with names that are similar (-like) to names in this list will be imported.
 
    .PARAMETER ExcludeFilter
        Elements that are similar (-like) to names in this list will not be imported.
 
    .PARAMETER Peek
        Rather than applying the setting, return the configuration items that would have been applied.
