This change adds a new kibana_admin role, and deprecates
the old kibana_user andkibana_dashboard_only_userroles.

The deprecation is implemented via a new reserved metadata
attribute, which can be consumed from the API and also triggers
deprecation logging when used (by a user authenticating to
Elasticsearch).

Some docs have been updated to avoid references to these
deprecated roles.
