[ATLAS-3633] Namespace attributes defined for superTypes are not listed in the derived entity details page

Description

As per Atlas Typesystem, https://atlas.apache.org/#/TypeSystem, we have the following pre-defined system types

• Referenceable:
• Asset:
• Infrastructure: 
• DataSet: 
• Process:
• Process Execution

Since these are the super types, where -> stands for extends

• Referenceable -> Asset
• Referenceable -> Asset -> Infrastructure
• Referenceable -> Asset -> DataSet
• Referenceable -> Asset -> Process
• Referenceable -> Asset -> Process Execution

Adding Referenceable/Asset/DataSet super types in the applicable types of a Namespace attribute should ideally make it available for all the entity types which extend these super types. 

For instance, hive_table has DataSet as the superTypes. Adding DataSet as the applicable type in namespace definition should allow us to link this Namespace attribute to all the hive_table entities. Currently, these attributes are not being listed in the entity details page, we have to provide the exact derived entity (like hive_table) in the applicable types.

Attached are the screenshots.
