/**
 * I recently needed to upload a file from the phone's filesystem to S3 using temporary credentials
 * (i.e. access key, secret key and session token) issued by an API for a React Native application,
 * without the overhead of Base64 encoding the file and passing it over the bridge (as it could be 
 * several MB big), and wanted to avoid writing native code to do this.
 *
 * None of the S3 libraries online worked with the temporary credentials, but I figured out a
 * solution using the official AWS SDK (which is good, as it supports all the relevant authentication
 * out of the box) and the react-native-fetch-blob module, which allows you to upload directly from the
 * filesystem with the correct Content-type header (as far as I can tell, React Native's fetch only
 * allows multipart/form-data, which was causing the pre-signed URL signature check to fail).
 *
 * Below is a skeleton version, which requires the aws-sdk and react-native-fetch-blob npm modules.
