HEAD request to manifests from containerd

HEAD requests to v2/*/manifests fails with Not Found(404) on Nexus version 3.4.0-02 from containerd based calls (AWS Fargate , kubernetes)

 access logs show:

108.128.143.192 - - [19/Nov/2021:10:13:32 +0100] "HEAD /v2/***/manifests/latest HTTP/1.0" 404 - 2054 2 "containerd/1.5.7+unknown" [qtp527840560-48351]

( nexus.log doesnt show the request.)

• AWS Fargate most recent platform version 1.4 uses containerd 1.5.7 and nexus responds with a 404 to the HEAD request on v2/*/manifests. 
• AWS Fargate platform version 1.3 uses Docker Engine and nexus responds correctly with a 200 to the same HEAD request on v2/*/manifests. 

reopened from NEXUS-27619 beause it still exists on recent nexus version

Thanks in advance
