This reverts commit dd476f19ef61c2ac71fe07e7aa656619db29d1b6.
As discussed in https://github.com/audeering/audb/pull/375#issuecomment-2092815946, using files instead of file in the dependency methods (as introduced in #370) does not provide a real world speed improvement, and complicates the public API.
Hence, we revert the changes here.
