Sprockets::Loader#resolve_dependencies

Internal: Resolve set of dependency URIs.

uris - An Array of "dependencies" for example:
       ["environment-version", "environment-paths", "processors:type=text/css&file_type=text/css",
          "file-digest:///Full/path/app/assets/stylesheets/application.css",
          "processors:type=text/css&file_type=text/css&pipeline=self",
          "file-digest:///Full/path/app/assets/stylesheets"]

Returns back array of things that the given uri depends on
For example the environment version, if you're using a different version of sprockets
then the dependencies should be different, this is used only for generating cache key
for example the "environment-version" may be resolved to "environment-1.0-3.2.0" for
version "3.2.0" of sprockets.

Any paths that are returned are converted to relative paths

Returns array of resolved dependencies
