   Put operations in object store are usually idempotent. However, that 
guarantee does not exist since this crate calls APIs that it does not control.
   
   Some clients might want to take the risk of ensuring all `put` operations 
are idempotent, and retried when unexpected errors happen, like SlateDB.
   
   I'm bringing the discussion of allow flagging operations as idempotent here, 
since I believe it'd be better solved in this repository.
   
   **Describe the solution you'd like**
   <!--
   A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

   I'd like to add a flag to `PutOptions` that people can use to make `PUT` 
operations idempotent.
   
   **Describe alternatives you've considered**

   The only alternative is to force consumers of this library to implement 
their own retry logic. Even if this is doable, it adds repetition and 
additional complexity to people that want to integrate this crate in their 
applications. The SDKs and HTTP libraries that call the cloud providers APIs 
already implement retry logic that we can leverage.
