John Russell 8377b9949c Global search/replace: audience="Cloudera" -> audience="hidden". 
For this change to land in master, the audience="hidden" code review
needs to be completed first. Otherwise, the doc build would still work
but the audience="hidden" content would be visible rather than hidden as
desired.

Some work happening in parallel might introduce additional instances of
audience="Cloudera". I suggest addressing those in a followup CR so this
global change can land quickly.

Since the changes apply across so many different files, but are so
narrow in scope, I suggest that the way to validate (check that no
extraneous changes were introduced accidentally) is to diff just the
changed lines:

git diff -U0 HEAD^ HEAD

In patch set 2, I updated other topics marked audience="Cloudera"
by CRs that were pushed in the meantime.

Bit manipulation functions perform bitwise operations involved in scientific processing or computer science algorithms.
For example, these functions include setting, clearing, or testing bits within an integer value, or changing the
positions of bits with or without wraparound.
</p>
<p>
If a function takes two integer arguments that are required to be of the same type, the smaller argument is promoted
to the type of the larger one if required. For example, <codeph>BITAND(1,4096)</codeph> treats both arguments as
<codeph>SMALLINT</codeph>, because 1 can be represented as a <codeph>TINYINT</codeph> but 4096 requires a <codeph>SMALLINT</codeph>.
</p>
<p>
Remember that all Impala integer values are signed. Therefore, when dealing with binary values where the most significant
bit is 1, the specified or returned values might be negative when represented in base 10.
</p>
<p>
Whenever any argument is <codeph>NULL</codeph>, either the input value, bit position, or number of shift or rotate positions,
the return value from any of these functions is also <codeph>NULL</codeph>
</p>
<p conref="../shared/impala_common.xml#common/related_info"/>
<p>
The bit functions operate on all the integral data types: <xref href="impala_int.xml#int"/>,
<xref href="impala_bigint.xml#bigint"/>, <xref href="impala_smallint.xml#smallint"/>, and
<xref href="impala_tinyint.xml#tinyint"/>.

<indexterm audience="hidden">bitand() function</indexterm>
<b>Purpose:</b> Returns an integer value representing the bits that are set to 1 in both of the arguments.
If the arguments are of different sizes, the smaller is promoted to the type of the larger.
<p>
<b>Usage notes:</b> The <codeph>bitand()</codeph> function is equivalent to the <codeph>&amp;</codeph> binary operator.

The following examples show the results of ANDing integer values.
255 contains all 1 bits in its lowermost 7 bits.
32767 contains all 1 bits in its lowermost 15 bits.

Negative numbers have a 1 in the sign bit and the value is the
<xref href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two%27s_complement" scope="external" format="html">two's complement</xref>
of the positive equivalent.
-->
You can use the <codeph>bin()</codeph> function to check the binary representation of any
integer value, although the result is always represented as a 64-bit value.
If necessary, the smaller argument is promoted to the
type of the larger one.

The following examples show the results of XORing integer values.
XORing a non-zero value with zero returns the non-zero value.
XORing two identical values returns zero, because all the 1 bits from the first argument are also 1 bits in the second argument.
XORing different non-zero values turns off some bits and leaves others turned on, based on whether the same bit is set in both arguments.

When you use a literal input value, it is treated as an 8-bit, 16-bit,

<indexterm audience="hidden">rotateleft() function</indexterm>
<b>Purpose:</b> Rotates an integer value left by a specified number of bits.
As the most significant bit is taken out of the original value,
if it is a 1 bit, it is <q>rotated</q> back to the least significant bit.
Therefore, the final value has the same number of 1 bits as the original value,
just in different positions.
In computer science terms, this operation is a
<q><xref href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_shift" scope="external" format="html">circular shift</xref></q>.
<p conref="../shared/impala_common.xml#common/usage_notes_blurb"/>
<p>
Specifying a second argument of zero leaves the original value unchanged.
Rotating a -1 value by any number of positions still returns -1,
because the original value has all 1 bits and all the 1 bits are
preserved during rotation.
Similarly, rotating a 0 value by any number of positions still returns 0.
Rotating a value by the same number of bits as in the value returns the same value.
Because this is a circular operation, the number of positions is not limited
to the number of bits in the input value.
For example, rotating an 8-bit value by 1, 9, 17, and so on positions returns an
identical result in each case.

<b>Purpose:</b> Shifts an integer value left by a specified number of bits.
As the most significant bit is taken out of the original value,
it is discarded and the least significant bit becomes 0.
In computer science terms, this operation is a <q><xref href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_shift" scope="external" format="html">logical shift</xref></q>.
<p conref="../shared/impala_common.xml#common/usage_notes_blurb"/>
<p>
The final value has either the same number of 1 bits as the original value, or fewer.
Shifting an 8-bit value by 8 positions, a 16-bit value by 16 positions, and so on produces
a result of zero.
</p>
<p>
Specifying a second argument of zero leaves the original value unchanged.
Shifting any value by 0 returns the original value.
Shifting any value by 1 is the same as multiplying it by 2,
as long as the value is small enough; larger values eventually
become negative when shifted, as the sign bit is set.
Starting with the value 1 and shifting it left by N positions gives
the same result as 2 to the Nth power, or <codeph>pow(2,<varname>N</varname>)</codeph>.

<b>Purpose:</b> Shifts an integer value right by a specified number of bits.
As the least significant bit is taken out of the original value,
it is discarded and the most significant bit becomes 0.
In computer science terms, this operation is a <q><xref href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_shift" scope="external" format="html">logical shift</xref></q>.
<p conref="../shared/impala_common.xml#common/usage_notes_blurb"/>
<p>
Therefore, the final value has either the same number of 1 bits as the original value, or fewer.
Shifting an 8-bit value by 8 positions, a 16-bit value by 16 positions, and so on produces
a result of zero.
</p>
<p>
Specifying a second argument of zero leaves the original value unchanged.
Shifting any value by 0 returns the original value.
Shifting any positive value right by 1 is the same as dividing it by 2.
Negative values become positive when shifted right.
