Upstream description:

Describe the bug

Validation is not working working for the Create Role API and allows for the creation of roles that do not match our format of role:default/<ROLE_NAME>. This means that we can create roles like this xyzzy or x:default/my-roles.

However, we do have validation on the other Role APIs. This means that we end up with errors when calling those APIs

Unsupported kind x. List supported values ["user", "group", "role"]"?name?: ?"InputError"?stack?: ?"InputError: Unsupported kind x. List supported values ["user", "group", "role"]n at PolicesServer.getEntityReference (/Users/dsantra/Downloads/backstage-plugins/plugins/rbac-backend/src/service/policies-rest-api.ts:619:13)n at <anonymous> (/Users/dsantra/Downloads/backstage-plugins/plugins/rbac-backend/src/service/policies-rest-api.ts:458:36)n at process.processTicksAndRej

Expected Behavior

Validation should be the same across all APIs

What are the steps to reproduce this bug?

1. Set up RBAC backend plugin
2. Assign yourself as an admin
3. Create the role x:default/my-roles
4. Attempt to delete the role x:default/my-roles
