S3: add context aware action resolution (#7479)

* add context aware action resolution

* isAnonymous

* add s3 action resolver

* refactor

* correct action name

* no need for action copy object

* Simplify by removing the method-action mismatch path

* use PUT instead of DELETE action

* refactor

* constants

* versionId vs versions

* address comments

* comment

* adjust messages

* ResolveS3Action

* address comments

* refactor

* simplify

* more checks

* not needed

* simplify
