Description

We recently changed to a conditional put strategy by default. This is because S3 now allows conditional puts and so all major providers allow it.

However, there are some "S3-compatible" API implementations which have not yet implemented conditional put (at the moment, I'm not aware of any that are not proprietary). If we want to continue supporting these stores then we could make the strategy configurable, perhaps via storage options.

Research direction

Start by tracing where the conditional put strategy is selected and how storage options are represented. Determine how the strategy could be configured for S3-compatible stores without conditional puts; done means the supported strategy choice is exposed clearly without breaking the default behavior.
