IMPALA-13271: Correct the documentation with respect to granting privileges on URI

Browse Source 
Currently, when an administrator grants a privilege on a URI to
a grantee via impala-shell, the created policy in Ranger's policy 
repository is non-recursive.

That is, the policy does not apply for any directory under the URI.
This patch corrects this in the documentation.

URIs represent the file paths you specify as part of statements such as <codeph>CREATE
EXTERNAL TABLE</codeph> and <codeph>LOAD DATA</codeph>. Typically, you specify what
look like UNIX paths, but these locations can also be prefixed with
<codeph>hdfs://</codeph> to make clear that they are really URIs. To set privileges
for a URI, specify the name of a directory, and the privilege applies to all the files
in that directory and any directories underneath it.
