feat: New style RBAC framework

This commit introduces a new style Role Based Access Control framework
for cubes. User can now define `accessPolicies` on Cubes and Views which
will be evaluated into `queryRewrite` and visibility rules.

This commit introduces a new config: `contextToRoles(context):
string[]`. It should return a list of user role names based on the
request context. Access Policies are defined per Cube x Role name like

```
access_policy:
  - role: "manager"
    conditions:
      - if "{ security_context.isNotSuspended }"
    row_level:
      filters:
        - member: `access_level`
          operator: lt
          values: [2]
    member_level:
      includes: "*"
      excludes: [`top_secret_field`]
```

Each policy can define a `row_level` and `member_level` rules.
Row level rules can be defined as a list of filters or `allow_all: true`
Member level rules should specify a list of "included" members that the
user with a given role is allowed to see.

When evaluating Cube and View level policies:
- row level filters are joined via AND (least permissive policy wins)
- member level policy at the view always wins (you can expose a hidden
  member of a Cube on a View)

Policies can reference `security_context` (lowercase) when evaluating
policy conditions and filter values.
