Updated the role function to yield SQL commands for altering existing PostgreSQL roles, allowing modifications to attributes such as LOGIN, SUPERUSER, and CONNECTION LIMIT. Changed the parameter name for sudo_user to _sudo_user for consistency.
…ing role update test Deleted the role_add_noop.json file as it was no longer needed. Introduced role_update.json to test the ALTER ROLE functionality, including connection limit and password updates for the 'testuser' role.

Hrm, it'd be nice to not make every postgres.role operation execute a command every time, could we check the existing role to see if ALTER is needed?
I think if a password is set we'll always need to alter because we can't check those, but all the other arguments should be the relevant info on the roles fact.

Correct, I will work on it |
Updated the role function to check if any attributes (LOGIN, SUPERUSER, INHERIT, CREATEDB, CREATEROLE, CONNECTION LIMIT, PASSWORD) need to be altered before executing the SQL command. Added a new test case to verify the no-op behavior when the role already exists with the specified attributes.
