Description
Migrated from [DBZ-2893](https://issues.redhat.com/browse/DBZ-2893)
We should re-introduce the user role validation permitting PG connector start in case of invalid user rights/roles ([https://github.com/debezium/debezium/pull/2037] changed to only log an error).
Suggested change is to add an undocumented property to enable/disable validation errors, see: [https://github.com/debezium/debezium/pull/2037#discussion_r552516248] **
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing PR 2037 and its linked discussion to understand the prior PostgreSQL role-validation behavior and the proposed undocumented property. Trace the PostgreSQL connector startup validation, then verify that the property controls whether invalid user roles prevent startup or only produce an error log.
