Roles were deprecated in Crowd 2.2 release, and should be removed completely from Crowd code base. Also Crowd 2.4 documentation should be updated to not talk about roles.

This is a fairly mechanical change but we should be clear about which behaviour to preserve. It seems safest to act as if no roles are present and report that they're disabled, removing the implementation and leaving all APIs in place. Queries for roles would still be accepted but would never return anything. Roles stored in the database would be left in place but ignored.
