Changing policy/distribution to use policy/models

1) Changed policy distribution framework to use entities from
policy/models
2) Changed all the test cases.
3) Commented few test cases which will be fixed along with code fixes.
4) Will be removing the old policy entities once all the pieces are
ready.
