It was resolved on the epub3 wg telecon to allow zero or more role properties to be attached to these elements.

See w3c/epub-specs#1129 (comment)

Given the impact on publishers, a fix for this may need to be expedited.

In EPUB 3.2, the 'role' property was only allowed to refine 'contributor'
or 'creator' properties, and only once per property. A new check was
introduced in EPUBCheck v4.2.5, and some users reported that it cause
issues with existing EPUB catalogs.

EPUB 3.3 will relax this by allowing authors to attach several roles to
creators, contributors, and publishers.

This commit proactively implements the relaxed EPUB 3.3 rules.

Fixes #1230
