Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I am using Last-Modified as an optimistic concurrency mechanism. I am calling the headObject api every ~2s. Although this works as expected on Chrome, Firefox caches this result, and responds with an old time when headObject is invoked again.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to be able to specify Cache-Control as no-cache for my request for all the browsers to behave the same.

The getObject has a response-cache-control header that can be provided to achieve this result and I would prefer if that was added to the headObject api as well. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/API_GetObject.html#API_GetObject_RequestSyntax

Describe alternatives you've considered
The alternative is that I set metadata of each s3 object as cache-control: no-cache, which works fine for newly created objects. but unfortunately we already have objects in customer accounts that do not have this metadata set, and we will now require additional permissions i.e CopyObject from the customer.

[trivikr]

The headObject request docs from S3 does not document response-cache-control header.

I wasn't able to repro this since it seems to pass cache-control: max-age=0 in the request headers
