Should plan on using https://github.com/minio/minio-java to maximize portability with other s3 compatible object stores. Will need to accept client ID and secret as environment variables so I don't want a bunch of call sites in itzg/minecraft-server to need to be modified. Using env vars is quite typical in this codebase via picocli.
