ROLE_READ to allow seeing account details of all users #794

Paraphrasing an e-mail thread initiated by ATLAS:

Currently only VO Admins have access to user details and our experts that 
are not VO Admins lost the option to check user VO account configuration 
while troubleshooting issues with grid activities. We have a lot of experts 
(and support people) for different components of our distributed system and 
it would not make sense to give them all full IAM privileges. We need a 
better way to provide them with user account details: a new IAM "ROLE_READ" 
is quite desirable for the relevant people to be allowed to see all account 
details (except secrets) with the IAM web interface.

And:

It is quite annoying to live without this functionality, 
so from our point of view this is quite an urgent issue.

The exact name of the role can be discussed.
