Consider adding roles to what is catalogued within a collection

This would be a nice feature to have. I imagine two ways to browse the roles..

1. menu-like list of the roles involved with the ability to open them up in an external editor
2. Search the roles/playbooks for a variable name (or some regex) and get a list of the files you can select from to edit in an external editor

For myself, when I open up a role for editing I like to see the variables and the tasks at the same time. I usually use something like this..

vim -O defaults/main.yml tasks/main.yml

I've written a BASH script that performs the functions I've suggested here. You're welcome to take a look and use whatever you want from it.

FWIW - with the new roles arspec in place, we have the start of documentation autogeneration from roles. You can see it in this PR - ansible-community/antsibull-build#272 and the places it links to. I expect that will be merged shortly, and it's something that navigator could display per role (for roles that use the argspec).
