Clarify that custom roles can be applied to subgroups

Jessie Young requested to merge jy-custom-role-tweaks into master

What does this MR do and why?

  • There was a question from Support about whether custom roles can be applied to subgroup memberships.
  • They can! Also to project memberships. But the custom role itself must be defined at the root group level.
  • This distincton is a little challenging to understand and was not reflected in our docs very well. This MR is my attempt at improvement.
