Doesn't prevent mods from doing anything else against other mods and admins (they may still moderate their levels and other similar content), but mods may no longer restrict, ban, delete, update, rename and reset the password of other mods and admins. Admins may still do anything to other admins.
This PR also adds tests for the above.
Edit: This now also prevents unpunished users from being pardoned, since that always sets the target user's role to user, meaning that users with a higher role could have their role set back to user this way.
