Switching the available roles and the current user's capabilities no longer happens in `switch_to_blog()` and `restore_current_blog()`, instead it has been moved to a new function `wp_switch_roles_and_user()` which is hooked into the site switching process. This allows to improve performance by temporarily unhooking the function when roles and capabilities do not need to be switched.
This change ensures that switching available roles now works closer to switching user capabilities, particularly the changes in [41624]. A new `WP_Roles::for_site( $site_id )` method has been introduced, and the `WP_Roles::_init()` method has been deprecated. It is furthermore possible to retrieve the site ID for which the available roles are currently initialized through a new `WP_Roles::get_site_id()`.

Prior to about 2013, many class methods lacked even access modifiers which made the `@access` notations that much more useful. Now that we've gotten to a point where the codebase is more mature from a maintenance perspective and we can finally remove these notations. Notable exceptions to this change include standalone functions notated as private as well as some classes still considered to represent "private" APIs.

Historically, it's been difficult to extend user roles, but reasonable to work around by waiting until after `init` has fired, to add custom roles and capabilities. With the addition of Locale Switching, Core now potentially loads roles before `init` has fired, leaving a window where custom roles and capabilities are not handled.
The new filter allows plugins to add their own custom roles whenever they're initialised (on page load, or when switching sites, for example), so that they can always be obeyed.
`WP_Roles` has also been tidied up a little bit, to remove duplicate code.

Also use 'back-compat' in some inline comments where backward compatibility is the subject and shorthand feels more natural.
Note: 'backwards compatibility/compatibile' can also be considered correct, though it's primary seen in regular use in British English.

Multisite functions use the term "blog" to refer to what we now call a "site," e.g. `get_current_blog_id()`. These functions are here to stay because of our commitment to backwards compatibility. What we can do is set the documentation straight.
