Add the "Read Only List of Full Paths" to the other file storage connectors

Currently, this option is available in the SharePoint Input tool, which will only output a list of files/items found in the directory specified, which is helpful in cases where we need to add some comparison logic to avoid reading a file that have been processed already (in like a data copy type of scenario). However, this feature was not included in the other connectors (Azure Data Lake File Input, One Drive Input, Box Input, etc.).

Additionally, including an optional input anchor to feed in a list of files to read would also be extremely helpful, similar to a Dynamic Input tool, and avoid the need of creating a Batch macro to perform this operation.
