<#
    .SYNOPSIS
        Validates that a configuration file is structurally consistent before it is applied.

    .DESCRIPTION
        Returns $null when the configuration is valid, otherwise a string describing the
        first problem found. Used by both the CLI and GUI import paths to reject invalid
        configs before any settings are applied.

    .OUTPUTS
        System.String. $null when valid, otherwise an error message.
