Fixing role param precedence issues

* Make role param resolution follow the role dependency chain, rather
  than using all roles within the play
* Also move params to be merged in after role vars in general, to match
  our variable precedence rules
* Changes to the way var lookup is done in role helper methods for
  get_vars(), get_inherited_vars(), and get_role_params() to make the
  above possible without trampling on previously merged vars
