Introduce java.nio.file.Path based Resource implementation [SPR-10608]

[spring-projects-issues]

Philippe Marschall opened SPR-10608 and commented

FileSystemResource uses the "old" java.io.File instead of the "new" java.nio.file.Path. One of the disadvantages is that it only works with the default file system and not with custom ones. Since the minimum requirement for Spring 4.0 is still Java 6, FileSystemResource cannot be retrofitted (and #getPath cannot be added to Resource).
