[feature] S3 support (#674)
* feat: vendor minio client

* feat: introduce storage package with s3 support

* feat: serve s3 files directly

this saves a lot of bandwith as the files are fetched from the object
store directly

* fix: use explicit local storage in tests

* feat: integrate s3 storage with the main server

* fix: add s3 config to cli tests

* docs: explicitly set values in example config

also adds license header to the storage package

* fix: use better http status code on s3 redirect

HTTP 302 Found is the best fit, as it signifies that the resource
requested was found but not under its presumed URL

307/TemporaryRedirect would mean that this resource is usually located
here, not in this case

303/SeeOther indicates that the redirection does not link to the
requested resource but to another page

* refactor: use context in storage driver interface

// Package credentials provides credential retrieval and management
// for S3 compatible object storage.
//
// By default the Credentials.Get() will cache the successful result of a
// Provider's Retrieve() until Provider.IsExpired() returns true. At which
// point Credentials will call Provider's Retrieve() to get new credential Value.
//
// The Provider is responsible for determining when credentials have expired.
// It is also important to note that Credentials will always call Retrieve the
// first time Credentials.Get() is called.
//
// Example of using the environment variable credentials.
//
// creds := NewFromEnv()
// // Retrieve the credentials value
// credValue, err := creds.Get()
// if err != nil {
// // handle error
// }
//
// Example of forcing credentials to expire and be refreshed on the next Get().
// This may be helpful to proactively expire credentials and refresh them sooner
// than they would naturally expire on their own.
//
// creds := NewFromIAM("")
// creds.Expire()
// credsValue, err := creds.Get()
// // New credentials will be retrieved instead of from cache.
//
//
// Custom Provider
//
// Each Provider built into this package also provides a helper method to generate
// a Credentials pointer setup with the provider. To use a custom Provider just
// create a type which satisfies the Provider interface and pass it to the
// NewCredentials method.
//
// type MyProvider struct{}
// func (m *MyProvider) Retrieve() (Value, error) {...}
// func (m *MyProvider) IsExpired() bool {...}
//
// creds := NewCredentials(&MyProvider{})
// credValue, err := creds.Get()
//
