Overall Objective

The /role slash command fails to look up users when selecting a role via the autocomplete dropdown if that role name contains a logical operator such as or / and (e.g. Boss and McGill).

To reproduce, run /role members in the CMU Class of 2030+ server and type Boss. Click on the autocomplete Boss and McGill. The role command returns "Role not found: Boss", when it should have returned all users with the Boss and McGill role.

Suggested Approach

For now, wrap quotes around any autocompleted role's value. You'll edit this code.

Note that this doesn't fix the error if the user types out the roles, just single role autocomplete (we'll figure out a way to fix the others later)
