JCLOUDS-794: Use bogus URL for generic S3 endpoint
This prevents users from accidentally connecting to AWS.
> generic S3 provider should not provide default endpoint
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: JCLOUDS-794
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCLOUDS-794
> Project: jclouds
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: jclouds-blobstore
> Affects Versions: 1.8.1
> Reporter: Andrew Gaul
> Assignee: Andrew Gaul
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: s3
>
> The generic S3 provider gives the endpoint for the us-standard region. This
> can confuse users who accidentally use s3 instead of aws-s3 then expect
> access to other regions. I do not believe that this leaks any credentials or
> exposes users to replay attacks due to inclusion of the host in the V2
> signature, but we should remove this default endpoint to avoid confusion.
> This represents a breaking change to some users; do we need to provide any
> notice other than release notes?
