Effectively S3 does not implement HTTP according to the spec. Rather
than working around the behaviour of S3 mirrors in methods/http we
could define methods/s3. S3 mirrors would then be properly identified
as non-http in sources.list.

This method could be a wrapper which invokes the http method with a
transformed URI.
