Resource collection injection by @Value regression

[quaff]

import static org.assertj.core.api.Assertions.assertThat;

import java.util.List;

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Value;
import org.springframework.core.io.Resource;
import org.springframework.test.context.junit.jupiter.SpringJUnitConfig;

@SpringJUnitConfig
public class ResourcesInjectionByFieldTests {

	@Value("classpath:application.yaml")
	private Resource[] resourcesArray;

	@Value("classpath:application.yaml")
        // @Value("classpath*:application.yaml") will works with 6.1
	private List<Resource> resourcesList;

	@Test
	void test() {
		assertThat(resourcesArray).isNotEmpty();
		assertThat(resourcesList).isNotEmpty();
	}

}

This test case failed after upgrading spring framework from 6.0 to 6.1, I believe it introduced by 84b3335 which fixed #24845. It's possible that this will fix a spring boot regression.
