Enis Soztutar resolved HBASE-12745.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Resolving this as per discussion. Please open a follow up issue for the
UnStable changes.
Since the visibility labels API is pretty new, it should be fine to break it
between 0.98 -> 1.0.
> Visibility Labels: support visibility labels for user groups.

> The thinking is that we should support visibility labels to be associated
> with user groups.
> We will then be able grant visibility labels to a group in addition to
> individual users, which provides convenience and usability.
> We will use '@group' to denote a group name, as similarly done in
> AcccessController.
> For example,
> {code}
> set_auths '@group1', ['SECRET','PRIVATE']
> {code}
> {code}
> get_auth '@group1'
> {code}
> A user belonging to 'group1' will have all the visibility labels granted to
> 'group1'
> We'll also support super user groups as specified in hbase-site.xml.
> The code update will mainly be on the server side VisibilityLabelService
> implementation.
