GH-42173: [R][S3] Writing partitionned dataset with Rarrow on S3 failed if ListBucket is not allowed for the user

…d if ListBucket is not allowed for the user

Thanks for opening a pull request!

Rationale for this change

This PR gives the user to choose not to create directory in the bucket before writing dataset.
In case the create_directory option is set to FALSE, no verification will be made by R arrow.
The S3 storage will itself verify if the directory exists and if the users has the rigth to modify it.
This way no ListBucket or HeadBucket are necessary to achieve the write operation.

df |> arrow::write_dataset(
  minio$path(paste0("smartsla-bucket/rarrow/")),
  partitioning = "qualitative",
  create_directory = FALSE,
  format = "parquet"
)

What changes are included in this PR?

create_directory is now available to the user in the write_dataset function.
Before this PR, this option was automatically set to TRUE (by default).

Are these changes tested?

Yes

Are there any user-facing changes?

No, the default value for create_directory is still TRUE.
