Can a location provide a name? about stow

[Xercoy]

Most of the methods used to create new clients have exported fields or methods to retrieve at minimum the credentials that were used to dial.

Azure
We can retrieve the non random, user specified resource name that's included in the credentials.

Swift, Oracle
We can retrieve the non random, user specified tenant name that's included in the credentials.

S3 - There doesn't seem to be any information related to a user specified name, but at least we have the credentials and other information that we may be able to do something with.

We can at least grab the credentials (Project ID or json information). @jasonhancock could you confirm if there's any credentials that are user specified? Project ID or something? We could use that if possible.

On balance, I'd say that we shouldn't do this. The location name is outside the scope of Stow.

We could return location name for those that support it, but then they'll be inconsistent.
