> Unlike the {{DefaultAWSCredentialsProviderChain}} in the AWS SDK, the 
> {{AWSCredentialsProviderChain}} constructed by {{S3AFileSystem}} does not 
> include an {{EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider}} instance. This prevents 
> users from supplying AWS credentials in the environment variables 
> {{AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID}} and {{AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY}}, which is the only 
> alternative in some scenarios.
> In my scenario, I need to access S3 from within a test running in a CI 
> environment that does not support IAM roles but does allow me to supply 
> encrypted environment variables. Thus, the only secure approach I can use is 
> to supply my AWS credentials in environment variables (plaintext 
> configuration files are out of the question).
