+Enhancement: Indicate in EOS containers that TUS is not supported
+
+The OCDAV propfind response previously hardcoded the TUS headers due to which
+clients such as phoenix used the TUS protocol for uploads, which EOS doesn't
+support. Now we pass this property as an opaque entry in the containers
+metadata.
