Create default roles
Stephen Frost <sfrost@snowman.net>
Create default roles This creates an initial set of default roles which administrators may use to grant access to, historically, superuser-only functions. Using these roles instead of granting superuser access reduces the number of superuser roles required for a system. Documention for each of the default roles has been added to user-manag.sgml. Bump catversion to 201604082, as we had a commit that bumped it to 201604081 and another that set it back to 201604071... Reviews by José Luis Tallón and Robert Haas
