Remove or support dfs.web.ugi
-----------------------------

                 Key: HDFS-1390
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1390
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: name-node, security
    Affects Versions: 0.22.0
            Reporter: Todd Lipcon
            Priority: Critical


The HDFS permissions guide still refers to {{dfs.web.ugi}}, and there are some 
vestiges in the code, but it no longer works post-security.

We should either remove the vestiges entirely and document the servletfilter 
approach to securing the web UI, or preferably, we could make the 
StaticUserWebFilter (HADOOP-6832) respect this configuration parameter 
(possibly with deprecation).
