"//" in path results in "NoSuchKey"

At least for aws.s3::s3read_using(), if the object path includes >1 consecutive forward slash (e.g., path/to/my//file.txt), then the file path is considered invalid, and the user get the return: NoSuchKey.

I know that this is a limitation of AWS, but it would be great if s3read_using included code to filter out repeated forward slashes (e.g,. object <- gsub('/+', '/', object)), especially given how "simple" file.path() is, in regards to dealing with repeated forward slashes.

I'm using aws.s3 0.3.21
