Signal handler to update staff status for users with the 'ADMIN' role.

  • If a User's role is 'ADMIN', mark all users with that role as is_staff=True.
  • If a User's role is not 'ADMIN', ensure is_staff is False unless the user is a superuser.

This ensures only users with the 'ADMIN' role are marked as staff, maintaining correct permissions.
