    Add note about workaround to potential error with argparse to hdfs (#29614)
    
    Instead of removing or reimplementing hdfs provider - in the event
    of a possibility to break argparse, we simply add a note in the
    provider documentation to remove argprase if such problem happens.
    
    Fixes: #22689
