   ### Description of PR
   I work for Pinterest. I developed a technique for vastly improving read 
throughput when reading from the S3 file system. It not only helps the 
sequential read case (like reading a SequenceFile) but also significantly 
improves read throughput of a random access case (like reading Parquet). This 
technique has been very useful in significantly improving efficiency of the 
data processing jobs at Pinterest. 
    
   I would like to contribute that feature to Apache Hadoop. More details on 
this technique are available in this blog I wrote recently:

   ### How was this patch tested?
   Tested against S3 in us-east-1 region.
   
   There are a small number of test failures (most within s3guard). I can 
attach test output if it helps.
