Today when an S3RetryingInputStream is closed the remaining bytes
that were not consumed are drained right before closing the underlying
stream. In some contexts it might be more efficient to not consume the
remaining bytes and just drop the connection.

This is for example the case with snapshot backed indices prewarming,
where there is not point in reading potentially large blobs if we know
the cache file we want to write the content of the blob as already been
evicted. Draining all bytes here takes a slot in the prewarming thread
pool for nothing.

Backport of #62167 for 7.10.0

Today when a snapshot restore is aborted (for example when the index is 
explicitly deleted) while the restoration of the files from the repository has 
already started the file restores are not interrupted. It means that Elasticsearch 
will continue to read the files from the repository and will continue to write 
them to disk until all files are restored; the store will then be closed and 
files will be deleted from disk at some point but this can take a while. This 
will also take some slots in the SNAPSHOT thread pool too. The Recovery 
API won't show any files actively being recovered, the only notable 
indicator would be the active threads in the SNAPSHOT thread pool.

This commit adds a check before reading a file to restore and before 
writing bytes on disk so that a closing store can be detected more 
quickly and the file recovery process aborted. This way the file 
restores just stops and for most of the repository implementations
 it means that no more bytes are read (see #62370 for S3), finishing 
threads in the SNAPSHOT thread pool more quickly too.
