Description

Currently, in the HBase plugin, we get the user groups by querying the HbaseUserUtils. However, this does not return the user groups correctly for testing purposes, when creating users via UserGroupInformation. If HBaseUserUtils does not return any group information, then we should fall back to checking the user's UGI groups.
