Title:
  SAML auth update user issues

Status in Mahara:
  In Progress
Status in Mahara 20.04 series:
  Confirmed
Status in Mahara 20.10 series:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Currently if you have a user in Mahara that logs in via SAML and has
  update user option set then their admin/staff status is updated. If
  this info is not being passed in via SAML from IdP it means they are
  updated to be normal members.

  We should only do this updating if any of the SAML instance settings are set for:
  - rolesiteadmin
  - rolesitestaff
  - roleinstadmin
  - roleinststaff

  And if the particular one is not set to ignore updating this part of
  the user's profile

  Also we need to check that the following is correct
       if ($institutionrole == 'admin') {
           $institution->addUserAsStaff($user);
       }

  Should it be          $institution->addUserAsAdmin($user);
