Steve Loughran updated HADOOP-13884:
------------------------------------
    Description: 
before doing a create(), s3a does a getFileStatus() to make sure there isn't a 
directory there, and, if overwrite=false, that there isn't a file.

Because S3 caches negative HEAD/GET requests, if there isn't a file, then even 
after the PUT, a later GET/HEAD may return 404; we are generating create 
consistency where none need exist. 

when overwrite=true we don't care whether the file exists or not, only that the 
path isn't a directory. So we can just do the HEAD path +"/' and the LIST 
calls, skipping the {{HEAD path}}. This will save an HTTP round trip of a few 
hundred millis, and ensure that there's no 404 cached in the S3 front end for 
later callers
