Description

Hi,

I've noticed that my backups haven't been working for a while now and I just can't get it to work anymore. I use MEGA S4 as an S3 object storage provider with this configuration

```yaml
apiVersion: barmancloud.cnpg.io/v1
kind: ObjectStore
metadata:
name: my-objectstore-name
namespace: mynamespace
spec:
configuration:
data:
compression: snappy
jobs: 1
destinationPath: s3://my-bucket-name/
endpointURL: https://s3.eu-luxembourg.megas4.com
s3Credentials:
accessKeyId:
key: ACCESS_KEY_ID
name: mega-s3
secretAccessKey:
key: ACCESS_SECRET_KEY
name: mega-s3
wal:
compression: snappy
maxParallel: 1
logLevel: info
retentionPolicyIntervalSeconds: 1800
retentionPolicy: 14d
```

WAL uploads are still working fine. But on-demand backups and scheduled backups are failing with this error message

```
failure uploading data (An error occurred (InvalidPart) when calling the UploadPart operation: Inconsistent part size. S4 requires parts to have the same size (except a smaller size can be allowed for the last part) and consecutive sequential part numbers starting by 1)
```

```

I'm pretty sure it has worked in the past. I've been searching a lot, but I haven't been able to find anything that might help me. Does anyone have any ideas? I think this might be something specific to MEGA. Does anyone know of a workaround for this, or has anyone seen something like this before?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

The version of the plugin being used is: **v0.13.0**

Best regards,
Paul
