[AVRO-1367] Compiling multiple schemas in a directory fails if dependencies are not in alphabetical order

Description

When compiling a schema with multiple input files, no dependencies can be found unless they are located in a file name that precedes the current file being parsed alphabetically. I added two sample test cases to illustrate this using the existing player.avsc and position.avsc in the test folder. Simply calling the doCompile using the input directory versus specifying the files manually, or specifying the input files by name, but in alphabetical order, results in an error:
org.apache.avro.SchemaParseException: Undefined name: "Position"
