tl;dr Does Imposter copy the Unburden boost, and is this conditional on the Imposter Pokemon holding an item?

Transform does not copy an Unburden boost because it is not a stat stage boost like a Motor Drive boost or similar. Since the Transformed Pokemon just gained Unburden, it would need to lose an item to activate the Ability for itself.
