Document the new x-azcopy-sas and x-azcopy binary caching sources. These use the AzCopy tool to interact with Azure Storage blob containers using SAS and non-SAS based authentication respectively. There is empirical evidence that these providers may perform better than the existing x-azblob provider that uses CURL invocations.
