   Currently, the `Resolver` checks the PrincipalRole usage grants available 
for a Principal entity when determining which roles are active for a request. 
These roles are then passed on to the `PolarisAuthorizer` so that authorization 
can be done on the operation and target object.
   
   This PR changes the `Resolver` to instead rely on the `SecurityContext` to 
determine which roles the principal has access to. A request filter populates 
the `SecurityContext` using an `ActiveRolesProvider`. The default 
implementation still looks up the principal role usage grants, but now the 
filter can be replaced by new implementations that determine role membership in 
other ways (e.g., by checking an authentication token or delegating to a third 
party identity provider).
