ResourcesItemReader was the only reader in the item.file package without a builder, and resolving a file pattern into resources was left to the user in Java configuration. This commit adds ResourcesItemReaderBuilder with resources(), filesPattern() and name() methods. The filesPattern() method resolves the pattern with PathMatchingResourcePatternResolver, consistent with the method of the same name proposed for MultiResourceItemReaderBuilder.

* Replace `filesPattern(String)` with an overload of `resources(String...)`, consistent with `MultiResourceItemReaderBuilder` * Resolve location patterns without forcing a `file:` prefix, letting callers pick the prefix (`file:`, `classpath:`, `classpath*:`, etc.) * Drop the separate `filesPattern` field and its build-time precedence logic, populating the existing `resources` field instead * Update the added tests to use the new method signature * Document `ResourcesItemReader` in the reference docs and add a section to the 6.1 what's new page

Resolves #5487
The new
ResourcesItemReaderBuilderfollows the structure of the existing builders in the same package. SinceResourcesItemReaderhas nosaveStateorstrictproperties, the builder only exposesresources(Resource...),filesPattern(String)andname(String). Thenameis optional because the reader falls back to a class-name-based execution context key.The
filesPattern(String)method has the same name and semantics as the one proposed forMultiResourceItemReaderBuilderin #5071: the pattern is resolved byPathMatchingResourcePatternResolverwith a "file:" prefix at build time. The test resource files are namedresource1.txtandresource2.txtso that they do not clash with thetest1.txt/test2.txtfiles added by #5071 in the same directory, in case both PRs get merged.
