Adds a toggle on navbar at the top of the page. The value is manged using redux in devU-client/src/redux/role.redux.ts, the final value is also stored in localstorage for persistence between page switches and reloads
For now the toggle can hide create buttons on the courses and assignments page.
If any page needs to access the role they can easily access this using
const role = useAppSelector((store) => store.roleMode)
which will give them access to the role value and a utility function isInstructor
e.g.
role.userRole // access the value itself
or
role.isInstructor() // utility function which returns true if toggled to instructor
