Aliyun OSS Storage Support in ClickHouse

Aliyun OSS Storage support. #31286 (cfcz48).
Added support for Aliyun OSS as a storage backend in ClickHouse.

Why it matters

This feature enables ClickHouse users to directly access and manage data stored in Aliyun OSS, a popular cloud object storage service. It solves the problem of integrating ClickHouse with Aliyun OSS for scalable and cost-effective storage, providing users with seamless compatibility and allowing data ingestion, querying, and backup operations on Aliyun OSS.

How to use it

To use Aliyun OSS storage in ClickHouse, configure the storage settings with the appropriate Aliyun OSS credentials and endpoint in the ClickHouse configuration files or storage definitions. After setup, you can create tables or external dictionaries referencing Aliyun OSS storage locations and interact with data using standard ClickHouse SQL commands.
