refactor(attack-paths): show target roles in PassRole escalation paths

Browse Source 
Updated PassRole queries to display which specific role(s) can be passed
in the visualization, instead of just showing a count. The path now shows:

Principal → New Resource → Target Role → Privilege Escalation

This allows users to see exactly which admin roles a principal can pass
to escalate privileges, which is crucial for security analysis.

Queries updated: Lambda, ECS, Glue, Bedrock, CloudFormation
