Na Li updated SENTRY-2316:
--------------------------
    Description: 
SENTRY-2252 added code to put the role and user types as categories. These are 
called 'entities' or 'entity' for the singular. However, Hive uses 'principal'. 
Like PrincipalType.ROLE and PrincipalType.USER. And change EntityName to 
PrincipalName. The changes should cover both java class and thrift generated 
types.

We should use the same naming convention of the ROLE and USER category to avoid 
confusions.
