Motivation
The CSL Schema allows for the notion that contributors may have a specific role in a publication, such as editor, translator, etc. We should add the ability for selecting a role for the contributor when attaching them to the publication
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Users need to be able to indicate an contributors role in the publication, for styles that allow for that.
Proposed Resolution
field_az_authors
should be updated to allow a role to be chosen when selecting the author. This should take the form that the role is in the context of the reference, not the author - i.e. an author should be able to have different roles in different publications. This will likely mean a subclass of the inline entity form that allows for a reference to an entity (the author) and a role (a config entity)Describe alternatives you've considered
Not having roles selectable. This would make citations for styles where translators, editors, etc are listed incorrectly.
