Could someone explain the difference between the Copy Bundle Resources phase of Xcode and a Copy Files phase? When would I use "Copy Files"?

You're in the Build Settings tab, Build Phases is next to it. It will be a list of phases that includes Copy Bundle Resources .
To resolve this warning, select your Info. plist from the Copy Bundle Resource build phase as shown in Figure 1, then click the Remove (–) button to delete it from the phase.
Copy Bundle Resources phase copies files that you want to be available in your bundle (.app). On the other hand Copy Files phase copies files to other (standard) locations accessible from your application (for example to /Library/Fonts) giving you also the option to copy them only when installing. You can also see relevant documentation here

It is useful, for example, when you are creating an Objective-C Static Library where you should expose .modulemap[About] or/and umbrella.h[About] files
Copy Bundle Resources - Copies files that support your source code into internal structure. If you want to make sure the files you added will get copied to the application bundle
It is useful, when you are creating an app where you can add images and other resources
