Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
When assigning new permissions to a role, it's not always easy to get a good overview on which permissions that might be lacking. Especially for large roles with lots of permissions added.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
It would make the interface easier to work with if the "Select permissions to assign" dialog only shows permissions not already assigned.

**Describe alternatives you've considered**
We increased the results-per-page to 100 to alleviate the problem somewhat.

**Additional context**

Research direction

The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point. Start by locating the "Select permissions to assign" dialog and its permission-loading or filtering logic, then inspect how a role's assigned permissions are represented. Done means the dialog shows only permissions not already assigned, while still allowing the remaining permissions to be selected.
