    Deep Copies a configuration. The implementation can decide if a deep copy is needed; if not, the input ID is simply returned.
    
    Parameters:
    
    configId - ID of existing configuration
    
    externalConfiguration - optional - externalConfiguration, if provided this will be used as source, instead of obtaining the external config via the provided configId
    
    productCode - optional - product code of configurable product to be copied
    
    force - if true a deep copy is enforced
    
    targetObjectType - the order entry object type for which the deep copy is executed
    
    Returns:
    
    ID of new configuration if a deep copy was performed; input otherwise
