Load Classes on Classpath

The fix for Issue #1314 should load classes on the classpath.

test/resources/example.txt
whee

@Test
public void readsFileContents() throws Exception {
	try (InputStream input = provider.open("example.txt")) {
		assertThat(new String(ByteStreams.toByteArray(input), StandardCharsets.UTF_8).trim()).isEqualTo("whee");
	}
}

public class ResourceConfigurationSourceProvider implements ConfigurationSourceProvider {

    @Override
    public InputStream open(String path) throws IOException {
        return getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(path);
    } 

}
