GH-9869: Introduce AbstractRecentFileListFilter strategy

Fixes: https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-integration/issues/9869

Currently, FileListFilters on the last modified attribute of a file are limited to the use case of discarding files that are too young.
It would be great to have a filter implementation which would accept files which are not old enough.

* Implement `AbstractRecentFileListFilter` for all the supported file protocols
