Implement S3 retry mechanism for failed block transfers
-------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-997
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-997
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: fs
    Affects Versions: 0.11.0
            Reporter: Tom White


HADOOP-882 improves S3FileSystem so that when certain communications problems 
with S3 occur the operation is retried. However, the retry mechanism cannot 
handle a block transfer failure, since blocks may be very large and we don't 
want to buffer them in memory. This improvement is to write a wrapper (using 
java.lang.reflect.Proxy if possible - see discussion in HADOOP-882) that can 
retry block transfers.
