Allow http server to start as regular principal if https principal not defined.

Key: HDFS-1023
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1023
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Jakob Homan
Assignee: Jakob Homan
Currently limitations in Sun's KerbSSL implementation require the https server
to be run as "host/[machi...@realm." and another Sun KerbSSL limitation appears
to require you to store all principals in the same keytab, meaning fully
functional, secured Namenodes require combined keytabs. However, it may be
that one wishes to run a namenode without a secondary namenode or other
utilities that require https. In this case, we should allow the http server to
start and log a warning that it will not be able to accept https connections.
