Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**

Customers use third-party “S3 compatible” clones, such as Minio. While we don’t officially support them, we do have to troubleshoot them frequently. It’s time-consuming, and requires a fair amount of back--and-forth.

**Describe the solution you'd like**

Add some S3-compatibility testing to [`SHOW BACKUP CONNECTION`](https://github.com/cockroachdb/cockroach/pull/97517). We’ve found the S3 list may be suspicious, for example.

Jira issue: CRDB-27927
