Description:
Just like the change where the 'bypass group access' permission was removed, we have also removed the 'administer group' group permission. This was the god-mode flag on a group level. The global permission with the same name stays as it's the one that is required to configure the module.
Group roles can instead now be flagged as admin roles from their edit form or by setting their 'admin' property to TRUE and they will always have all permissions when flagged as being an admin role. The permission UI has been adjusted to account for this.
Please note that any role which had 'administer group' will automatically have all of its permissions removed and the admin flag set to TRUE.
