   Thanks @alamb and @tustvold for reviewing this. The main reason for adding 
`as_any` is to identify different cache path for the corresponding 
`ObjectStore`. For example, in the 
https://github.com/apache/arrow-ballista/issues/645, we will introduce a cache 
layer with a root cache directory. The cache layer will be able to cache data 
from different `ObjectStore`s. Suppose `ObjectStore` A has a path `p`, while 
`ObjectStore` B has the same path `p`. Then how to cache them both becomes a 
problem if we are not able to identify different `ObjectStore`s.
