/**
 * A named grouping of roles.
 * <p>
 * Whether or not a given authorization context implies a Group role
 * depends on the members of that role.
 * <p>
 * A Group role can have two kinds of member roles: <i>basic</i> and
 * <i>required</i>.
 * A Group role is implied by an authorization context if all of
 * its required member roles are implied
 * and at least one of its basic member roles is implied.
 * <p>
 * A Group role must contain at least one basic member role in order
 * to be implied. In other words, a Group without any basic member
 * roles is never implied by any authorization context.
 * <p>
 * A User role always implies itself.
 * <p>
 * No loop detection is performed when adding members to groups, which
 * means that it is possible to create circular implications. Loop
 * detection is instead done when roles are checked. The semantics is that
 * if a role depends on itself (i.e., there is an implication loop), the
 * role is not implied.
 * <p>
 * The rule that a group must have at least one basic member to be implied
 * is motivated by the following example:
 *
 * <pre>
 * group foo
 *   required members: marketing
 *   basic members: alice, bob
 * </pre>
 *
 * Privileged operations that require membership in "foo" can be performed
 * only by alice and bob, who are in marketing.
 * <p>
 * If alice and bob ever transfer to a different department, anybody in
 * marketing will be able to assume the "foo" role, which certainly must be
 * prevented.
 * Requiring that "foo" (or any Group role for that matter) must have at least
 * one basic member accomplishes that.
 * <p>
 * However, this would make it impossible for a group to be implied by just
 * its required members. An example where this implication might be useful
 * is the following declaration: "Any citizen who is an adult is allowed to
 * vote."
 * An intuitive configuration of "voter" would be:
 *
 * <pre>
 * group voter
 *   required members: citizen, adult
 *      basic members:
 * </pre>
 *
 * However, according to the above rule, the "voter" role could never be
 * assumed by anybody, since it lacks any basic members.
 * In order to address this deficiency a predefined role named
 * "user.anyone" can be specified, which is always implied.
 * The desired implication of the "voter" group can then be achieved by
 * specifying "user.anyone" as its basic member, as follows:
 *
 * <pre>
 * group voter
 *   required members: citizen, adult
 *      basic members: user.anyone
 * </pre>
