I have separated the refactoring to HADOOP-12203. Pleas review the patch.
Also opened HADOOP-12205 to addd support for HTTP Authorization based on
HADOOP-12203.

> Currently accessing Hadoop via RPC can be authorized using
> _ServiceAuthorizationManager_. But there is no uniform authorization of the
> HTTP access. Some of the servlets check for admin privilege.
> This creates an inconsistency of authorization between access via RPC vs
> HTTP.
> The fix is to enable authorization of the webui access also using
> _ServiceAuthorizationManager_.
