Get a roster for a gameplay role

- object
  - `success` boolean, required: Always true on a successful response. Every error carries `false` and an `error` object instead.
  - `data` object[], required: The best-scoring firearms for the role, strongest first.
    - `id` string: Slug of the firearm.
    - `name` string: Display name, as the maker writes it.
    - `roleScore` number: Fit for this role, 0 to 100, from the role weighting of the game stats.
    - `stats` object: The editorial game stats, with the `game` prefix the column carries stripped.
      - `damage` integer, nullable: Editorial damage rating, 0-100. Not a measured figure.
      - `accuracy` integer, nullable: Editorial accuracy rating, 0-100.
      - `range` integer, nullable: Editorial range rating, 0-100.
      - `fireRate` integer, nullable: Editorial rate-of-fire rating, 0-100.
      - `mobility` integer, nullable: Editorial mobility rating, 0-100.
      - `recoilControl` integer, nullable: Editorial recoil-control rating, 0-100.
      - `reloadSpeed` integer, nullable: Editorial reload-speed rating, 0-100.
      - `concealment` integer, nullable: Editorial concealment rating, 0-100.

## Other responses

- `400`: Validation error
- `401`: Missing or invalid API key
- `403`: The credential is valid and the caller is not permitted. Three causes, none of which reissuing a key changes: the plan is below the endpoint's tier, the account is suspended, or the key is not attached to the thing being acted on, meaning a user account for `/v1/me` or a shop for `/v1/vendor`. Distinct from 401, which means the credential is missing, malformed or expired and a new one can work.
- `429`: A limit was reached. `RATE_LIMITED` is the per-minute limit: wait `Retry-After` seconds (a minute) and retry. `DAILY_CAP_EXCEEDED` is the plan's daily limit, per key: nothing will be served until the counters return to zero at midnight UTC. `MONTHLY_CAP_EXCEEDED` is the plan's monthly allowance, for the whole account: nothing will be served until midnight UTC on the first of next month, or until the plan changes. For both, `Retry-After` is the seconds until then and `error.resetsAt` says when as an instant. Calls made after a refusal are refused too and do not spend the month, and a free key that keeps calling is paused, so stop at the first one and resume at the reset.
- `500`: Internal server error
