I can't find the use of inheritedFleetWorkspacePermissions in the fleet docs. I could only find https://fleet.rancher.io/how-tos-for-operators/multi-user#_isolated_workspaces_in_rancher where namespacedRules is used to provide access to specific fleet workspaces

Description
Over the last few releases of Rancher, we've introduced new fields to GlobalRoles that allow advanced customization. I have added more details about those fields so users can understand how to use them.
