Resolved #324

Removed the ability for cross-Circles to have Accountabilities, since they have no Circle Leads to hold them by default anyway (and updated Anchor Circle rules to match), but allowed them to control a Domain if a Policy of another Circle delegates control of one to them.

#### 1.4.5 Creating Circles Across Roles

Two or more Roles may create a new Circle at any time to govern a shared Purpose across the Roles. To do so, the founding Roles must agree on an initial Purpose and any Accountabilities for the new Circle. The new Circle starts with the founding Roles linked into it, and a Policy inviting those links. A Circle created this way has no Super-Circle and no Domains, and may change its own Purpose or Accountabilities via a Policy. Such a Circle is immediately dissolved if it has no Roles linked into it at any point.
