Linked messages to a locale with a path like key e.g (dashboard.homepage.title: "Dashboard") don't work

Reporting a bug?

using "@nuxtjs/i18n": "8.3.1"

When you have the keys in your locale set up as a flat object with "path" like keys

{
"common.unit.data.mb": "MB",
"component.data.usage": "Want to buy more @:common.unit.data.mb ?"
}

you will get Want to buy more . It will not correctly resolve the key

Expected behavior

It should resolve the key correctly, returning the value of common.unit.data.mb.

discovered the flatJson property on the config which of course fixes this issue 🥸
