Description

Would it make sense to be able to use odo for generic binary files?

For example, suppose I have some generic file sitting on S3. It would be nice to be able to download it with `odo('s3://my-bucket/my-file', 'local-file')`. Currently, this only works if the source file is something odo recognizes.

Research direction

Start at the odo(...) conversion entry point and inspect how an S3 source is dispatched when its type is unrecognized. Read related issue #326 for context. Done means a generic binary object can be downloaded from S3 to a local path without requiring odo to recognize its format.
