Organization hierarchy and assignment

An Organization sits at the centre of two independent mappings, not at the end of a chain. One mapping says which roles belong to the organization; the other says which schemas it may use. Both point at cypex.t_organization, and neither knows about the other:

pg_roles                          cypex.t_module
(login identity, grants)          (schema registry)
    │                                   │
    │  cypex.t_role_organization        │  cypex.t_module_organization
    │  (role_name ↔ organization)       │  (module_id ↔ organization)
    │                                   │
    └──────────►  cypex.t_organization  ◄──────────┘
                  (the tenant boundary)

A user sees a row only when both mappings agree: their role is mapped to the organization, and the schema holding the object is granted to that same organization. Satisfying one without the other produces an empty result, not a partial one.
