powershell desired state configuration deploy modules for download and do a push to remote node

# How to get a remote host to pull modules when pushing a Desired State Configuration
# Package up required PowerShell modules
# Place them in the required directory on the pull server
# Execute DSC in 'push' mode
# Remote host will pull modules from configured DSC repository
#
# todo: DRY. Can we use the array $modules when invoking the Import-DscResource cmdlet?
