    With this change, MinIO's ILM supports transitioning objects to a remote tier.
    This change includes support for Azure Blob Storage, AWS S3 compatible object
    storage incl. MinIO and Google Cloud Storage as remote tier storage backends.
    
    Some new additions include:
    
     - Admin APIs remote tier configuration management
    
     - Simple journal to track remote objects to be 'collected'
       This is used by object API handlers which 'mutate' object versions by
       overwriting/replacing content (Put/CopyObject) or removing the version
       itself (e.g DeleteObjectVersion).
    
     - Rework of previous ILM transition to fit the new model
       In the new model, a storage class (a.k.a remote tier) is defined by the
       'remote' object storage type (one of s3, azure, GCS), bucket name and a
       prefix.
    
    * Fixed bugs, review comments, and more unit-tests
    
    - Leverage inline small object feature
    - Migrate legacy objects to the latest object format before transitioning
    - Fix restore to particular version if specified
    - Extend SharedDataDirCount to handle transitioned and restored objects
    - Restore-object should accept version-id for version-suspended bucket (#12091)
    - Check if remote tier creds have sufficient permissions
    - Bonus minor fixes to existing error messages
