Summary

Adds docs for two new roles added for granular control over Connected Workspaces features:

  • Shared Channel Manager (shared_channel_manager) — grants the manage_shared_channels permission, allowing assigned users to share and unshare channels with existing secure connections.
  • Secure Connection Manager (secure_connection_manager) — grants the manage_secure_connections permission, allowing assigned users to create, manage, and remove secure connections to remote servers.

Previously, only System Admins have these permissions, and the only workaround is repurposing the system_manager role (which carries ~80 unrelated sysconsole permissions) OR giving access to all users. These purpose-built roles let admins delegate shared channel and secure connection management to specific users without granting broader system access.
