ConfigData imports cannot override profile specific imports

[nagsuchandra]

Description:

Lets say there is a profile baz.

classpath:application-baz (local to jar) is overriding application-baz from spring cloud config repository, which is incorrect.

i.e., values from jar local property source gets precedence over the spring cloud config repo's property source.

Test case illustrating the issue:
spring-cloud/spring-cloud-config#1839 --> This PR has the test case in it .

See open issue on spring cloud board:
spring-cloud/spring-cloud-config#1838

Spring cloud has suggested the bug to be logged under spring boot.

The workaround we have been applying is

• remove spring.config.import from application's src/main/resources/application.yml
• set spring.config.import as JAVA_OPTS when starting the service.

Thanks for reporting the issue, this particular use-case was overlooked when we designed the new ConfigData data support. I've pushed something that I hope will allow Spring Cloud to support profile specific imports.

Thank you @philwebb for taking care of this.
