Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/s3fs-fuse/s3fs-fuse/issues/1315

According to scaleway documentation for C14 Cold Storage (S3 Glacier alternative) I need to use GLACIER as the storage_class.

I was thinking to create a PR to add this special value but wouldn't it be better to let any text values in storage_class?

Adding Glacier might be reasonable even though its semantics don't work well with s3fs. For example, users may want to create backups with this storage class even though restoring from them might require an additional step to change its storage class. Could you test this to see how well it works in practice with Scaleway and AWS?

As for accepting arbitrary strings, it's just easier to add another constant since there are rarely changes to this.

References #139.

# s3fs

s3fs allows Linux and macOS to mount an S3 bucket via FUSE.
s3fs preserves the native object format for files, allowing use of other
tools like [AWS CLI](https://github.com/aws/aws-cli).
