Hi Dennis,

Re: [2329] Option roleARN - it is optional for S3-compatible implementations
that do not require it (e.g. MinIO). It is still necessary for AWS.

Since setting it is a user's choice, I do not think a feature flag is
necessary.

[2329] https://github.com/apache/polaris/pull/2329

Cheers,
Dmitri.
