Description

Steps to Duplicate

1. Migrate data from 0.8 to latest. E.g. data containing hive db and tables.
2. In the web UI, use a DSL search like: hive_table db.name="migration_database_8"

**Expected results: The hive_table with for database migration_database_8 should be displayed.

**Actual results: No results are displayed. There are exceptions logged on the server-side.

Root Cause

As part of implementation of ATLAS-3370, shadow properties were introduced for index type STRING. These need to be set for data that is migrated.

Solution

Use patch handler to add these missing types.

Rationale for the approach: The same problem would be observed when upgrading from version of Atlas post 0.8 but before the change was introduced.
