For example, chrony.conf is the base configuration, then tell it to use either chrony_defaultservers.conf or chrony_dhcpservers.conf?  Or does someone have any other methods that they have implemented that I haven't considered?

With the confdir and sourcedir directives you can override a chrony
config file by adding another config file with same name to a
different directory.

For example, if chrony.conf had
sourcedir /etc/chrony/dhcp-servers /etc/chrony/default-servers

and you had only this file in those directories
/etc/chrony/default-servers/foo.sources

the sources from that file would be used, but if you created
/etc/chrony/dhcp-servers/foo.sources

the first file would be ignored.
