Feature Request: Support Custom Roles for Users

[alexlo03]

Teams allow custom role assignment: #1038 (see also #988)
Users (Collaborators) do not:

terraform-provider-github/github/resource_github_repository_collaborator.go

Line 42 in 05a8875

ValidateFunc: validateValueFunc([]string{"pull", "triage", "push", "maintain", "admin"}),

Thanks

@alexlo03 does that cover the functionality for custom roles described in the docs here?

[alexlo03]

@kfcampbell This impacts the ability to assign the role.
With terraform now it is possible to set MY_CUSTOM_ROLE on SOME_TEAM.
It is NOT possible to set MY_CUSTOM_ROLE on SOME_PERSON.

@alexlo03 I think I understand that. Will removing the ValidateFunc you linked allow custom roles as described in the docs link above? Is that something you'd like to try submitting a PR for?

[alexlo03]

Sorry I am unable to do a PR any time soon. Feel free to close.

I think it's still worth keeping the issue open for now in case another community members wants to give it a shot!
