Integrate S3 commands into the REST API

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

We have an automatic workflow which provisiones storage with the help of the REST API (and not mm* commands)
Since we want to automate the S3 part, we need s3 commands in the REST API. 

So the request is to provide S3 administration via REST API, ideally  all mms3 options
We still use the standard/"old" REST API wich runs with the gpfsgui, so it would be easiest to have the commands there. 
But it would also be okay if the commands will be available in the new v3 of the REST API .
