FF: Document finder reads directory randomly

[oyeaussie]

findDocuments method in DocumentFinder.php uses readdir, this function does not sort but instead reads the dir as the files were stored. This is fine if we are looking for multiple files as then we can sort them later. But, if we use findOneBy(), it randomly picks the last modified file, which is not good. We can use scandir instead so we have sorting of files before we run through them.
