With the recent introduction of retry_strategy to Seastar, the pure virtual class previously defined in ScyllaDB is now redundant. This change allows us to streamline our codebase by directly inheriting from Seastar’s implementation, eliminating duplication in ScyllaDB.
Despite this update is purely a refactoring effort and does not introduce functional changes it should be ported back to 2025.3 and 2025.4 otherwise it will make future backports of bugfixes/improvements related to `s3_client` near to impossible
