Description

currently when s3 sink fails the only error message you get is `403: Permission Denied` without too much information why it was denied. we should add a couple of common reasons why that might of happened as otherwise debugging IAM stuff is not fun:

* creds dont have access to the bucket in the uri
* if its MFA session, session token must be provided
* how to test local creds with vanilla aws cli

Research direction

Locate the S3 sink error-handling path and inspect how a 403 permission error is currently reported. Done means the error includes the listed bucket-access, MFA session-token, and vanilla AWS CLI credential-testing guidance.
