"conf/gateway-site.xml" has configurations that are global to the entire
Knox instance.

"topologies/abc.xml" are configurations specific to the topology. The
topologies can reference some configurations in the global
"conf/gateway-site.xml". One of those is the group configurations. This
would be useful to say have multiple topologies not have to repeat the same
configuration over and over again. On the other hand, you can so choose to
duplicate the configuration in each topology.
