Enhanced ASP.NET Identity configuration to include role support
by adding `.AddRoles<IdentityRole>()` in `Program.cs`. Introduced
a `SeedData` class to seed predefined roles ("Instructor" and
"Student") and a default instructor user during application
startup in the development environment.
Added a section to the `README.md` detailing how to log in as an instructor in the development environment, including default credentials and a note about the seeded account. Updated the `SpeakingInBitsWeb.slnx` file to include the `README.md` under a new `/Solution Items/` folder.
