Refs #26029 -- Extended docs for the StorageHandler default instance.

2024-10-24T14:57:04Z

Third-party packages that provide storages need to rely on the StorageHandler API in order to allow users to use the `storages` module instance to override defaults. Minimally documenting these methods allows package authors to rely on them. Co-authored-by: Sarah Boyce <42296566+sarahboyce@users.noreply.github.com>

Fixed #35604, Refs #35326 -- Made FileSystemStorage.exists() behaviour independent from allow_overwrite.

Partially reverts 0b33a3abc2ca7d68a24f6d0772bc2b9fa603744e. Storage.exists(name) was documented to "return False if the name is available for a new file." but return True if the file exists. This is ambiguous in the overwrite file case. It will now always return whether the file exists. Thank you to Natalia Bidart and Josh Schneier for the review.

Fixed #35326 -- Added allow_overwrite parameter to FileSystemStorage.
