logstash s3 output doesn't support path-style url for s3 compatible storage.

It tries to connect to "\< bucket\>.\< endpoint\>"... instead of "\< endpoint\>/\< bucket\>".

Our internal s3 implementation currently only supports the path style, would be nice if logstash provides a switch to use path style.

Such as a shame that we are so close, yet so far! Blocked by such a small thing before logs can reach s3. 🙂

Hello @ibmdcb

You can pass additional configuration to the client.  
See the [documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-inputs-s3.html#plugins-inputs-s3-additional_settings).  
In particular:

```auto
input {
      s3 {
        "access_key_id" => "1234"
        "secret_access_key" => "secret"
        "bucket" => "logstash-test"
        "additional_settings" => {
          "force_path_style" => true
        }
      }
    }

```
