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.

<!-- Copied from Sentry docs. Turn into conref. -->
The <codeph>CREATE ROLE</codeph> statement creates a role to which privileges can be granted. Privileges can
be granted to roles, which can then be assigned to users. A user that has been assigned a role will only be
able to exercise the privileges of that role. Only users that have administrative privileges can create/drop
roles. By default, the <codeph>hive</codeph>, <codeph>impala</codeph> and <codeph>hue</codeph> users have
administrative privileges in Sentry.

<codeblock>CREATE ROLE <varname>role_name</varname>
</codeblock>
<p conref="../shared/impala_common.xml#common/privileges_blurb"/>
<p>
Only administrative users (those with <codeph>ALL</codeph> privileges on the server, defined in the Sentry
policy file) can use this statement.
</p>
<p conref="../shared/impala_common.xml#common/compatibility_blurb"/>
<p>
Impala makes use of any roles and privileges specified by the <codeph>GRANT</codeph> and
<codeph>REVOKE</codeph> statements in Hive, and Hive makes use of any roles and privileges specified by the
<codeph>GRANT</codeph> and <codeph>REVOKE</codeph> statements in Impala. The Impala <codeph>GRANT</codeph>
and <codeph>REVOKE</codeph> statements for privileges do not require the <codeph>ROLE</codeph> keyword to be
repeated before each role name, unlike the equivalent Hive statements.
