aws s3 fails if non-existent soft link

[woodnt]

Hello,

aws s3 fails if there is a symlink to a non-existent file. The expected behavior is to simply skip the file, but it results in complete failure of the script.

Here is an output example:

# aws s3 sync /root/ s3://HIDDEN/root/ --exclude "/root/bin/*" 2> /tmp/errors
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/root/hello' 
Completed 1 part(s) with ... file(s) remaining

Regards,
Nathan

Closing, this was implemented via #854 and now part of the latest CLI release.
