Targeting issue #32271
This modification allows native Kubernetes + AWS (EKS) authentication
with the Minio client, to Amazon S3 using the IRSA role assigned to a
Service account by replacing the hard coded reference to the
`DefaultIAMRoleEndpoint` with an optional configurable endpoint.
Internally, Minio's `credentials.IAM` provider implements a discovery
flow for IAM Endpoints if it is not set.
For backwards compatibility:
- We have added a configuration mechanism for an `IamEndpoint` to retain
the unit test safety in `minio_test.go`.
- We believe existing clients will continue to function the same without
needing to provide a new config property since the internals of Minio
client also often resolve to the `http://169.254.169.254` default
endpoint that was being hard coded before
To test, we were able to build a docker image from source and, observe
it choosing the expected IAM endpoint, and see files uploaded via the
client.
