> As a user I would like to reduce manual configuration of components after importing flows from NIFI registry.
> Use cases:
>  * a component uses controller service(s) defined in a scope of *parent* (or higher) level (e.g. record-based processors, DB pools, etc) can have controllers assigned by default, if ID registered is not available (versioned from another NIFI instance)
>  * a controller service that is in a scope of imported flow uses another controller in a scope  of *parent* (or higher) level (e.g. Record readers/writer using schema registry).
> Current state:
>  * a lookup for a controller service is done by ID. If ID is not found, a controller won't be assigned and property of a processor/controller will stay blank and will require manual configuration/selection
> Specifications/Requirements:
>  * Change current behavior to enable default assignment of controller services to processor/controller property in case desired controller service cannot be found by ID.
>  * in order to reduce wrong automatic assignments, both type and name of a controller service should be considered. 
>  * Since names aren't unique, have a NIFI property to specify strict and nonstrict policy for multi-match:
>  ** strict mode will restrict automatic assignment of controller service, and property in the processor/controller will stay blank (as per current specification).
>  ** nonstrict mode will allow any of matching controllers to be assigned (first found).
