hdfsChown()

Supported by libMaprClient for hadoop-2.x

Changes ownership of a file or directory in the manner of the chown command.

Attention:

To permit a client to resolve user or group from a server, set the fs.mapr.server.resolve.user parameter to true in core-site.xml, for both secure and non secure clusters. Setting this is essential when the client does not belong to the same domain as the mapr cluster nodes, and does not have any knowledge of users present in that domain.
To permit CLDB to resolve user or group, set the cldb.security.resolve.user configuration parameter to 1 on a non-secure cluster as follows:
```
maprcli config save -values {"cldb.security.resolve.user":1}
```
You do not have to set this parameter for a secure cluster, as it is already set to 1.
