Issue description

Importing roles like this does not allow the deployment of functions like 'sls deploy -f functionName'.
{ 'Fn::ImportValue': '***-LambdaAccessRole' }

This is because there is no way to access imported function roles
The fix can be added in
serverless/lib/plugins/aws/deploy-function.js:146:35

Service configuration (serverless.yml) content

N/A

Command name and used flags

sls deploy -f functionName

Command output

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading '0')
    at AwsDeployFunction.normalizeArnRole (/Users/**/**/**/**/**/**/node_modules/serverless/lib/plugins/aws/deploy-function.js:146:35)
    at AwsDeployFunction.updateFunctionConfiguration

Environment information

Tried with sls versions 3.23 and 3.36 (latest)

I tried a similar fix, but this does not work for me, presumably because I use a reference to the ARN, and not to the role name. (#12372)
Perhaps your fix works because the name of the reference is the same as the name of the role.
