Description

Add a new function that would accept userId, targetRole and newScope which would then go and change the scope of the assigned role to the newScope. Right now if I want to just change scope I need to remove role and then add it again. For use cases where user can be assigned the same role into multiple scopes, the function should fail if it finds more than one results or have an optional parameter to define the previous scope.

Thoughts?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement a new function that updates the scope of an existing role assignment. Consider edge cases where the same role is assigned to multiple scopes for the same user. Examine the existing `addRolesToUser` and `removeRolesFromUser` functions to understand the current role assignment structure and build upon them.
