 In [changeset:"42855"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="42855"
 Users: Use `promote_users` for role updates in `edit_user()`.

 `edit_user()` can also update user roles but was still using the
 `edit_users` capability instead of the newer `promote_users` capability
 introduced in [14176].
 This makes the role handling consistent with the bulk dropdown menu for
 role changes.

 Props flixos90, johnjamesjacoby, ocean90.
 Fixes #42564.
