Trouble loading files defined in YAML explicitly

Look at https://huggingface.co/datasets/severo/doc-yaml-2

It's a reproduction of the example given in the docs at https://huggingface.co/docs/hub/datasets-manual-configuration

```
You can select multiple files per split using a list of paths:

my_dataset_repository/
├── README.md
├── data/
│   ├── abc.csv
│   └── def.csv
└── holdout/
    └── ghi.csv


---
configs:
- config_name: default
  data_files:
  - split: train
    path:
    - "data/abc.csv"
    - "data/def.csv"
  - split: test
    path: "holdout/ghi.csv"
---
```

It raises the following error:

```
Error code:   ConfigNamesError
Exception:    FileNotFoundError

There is a typo in one of the file names - `data/edf.csv` should be renamed to `data/def.csv` 🙂. 

wow, I reviewed it twice to avoid being ashamed like that, but... I didn't notice the typo.

Besides this: do you think we would be able to improve the error message to make this clearer?

Hi @severo 👋🏼

I'd like to work on improving the error message when files listed in `data_files` inside the YAML config are not found in the dataset repository.

My plan is to:
- Detect missing files explicitly by comparing listed paths in `data_files` with actual files in the repo
- Update the raised error to clearly mention which files are missing, e.g.:
  `"The following files were not found in the dataset repository: data/def.csv"`

Let me know if this direction makes sense — happy to start working on a PR!

Hi ! Doesn't it raise a `FileNotFoundError` when it's the case ? see in the source code:

https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/4a637bd963557bca42d3a2d8c54200fccb7ab91e/src/datasets/data_files.py#L379-L383

Hi @lhoestq, thanks a lot for the pointer and for taking the time to review!

You're totally right — the FileNotFoundError does get raised from data_files.py when a file pattern isn't found.

What I was hoping to improve is the clarity of the error message, especially when users define multiple paths in data_files via a YAML config. For example, instead of the generic:

"Unable to find 'data/def.csv'"

it could say something like:

"The following files listed in the data_files YAML config were not found in the dataset repository: data/def.csv"

This could help users quickly catch typos or misnamed files in longer configs (like what happened in this issue 😅).

If that sounds like a helpful addition, I'd love to work on a small PR to enhance the error messaging.

Thanks again for all your help and feedback!
