You have to carefully examine the sections being referred to; in each area of the spec, the references are the to <role-name>s specified in a <security-constraint>, not to those listed in a <security-role>.  There is no direct statement in the spec (but there is implication) that a list of <security-role> elements is required, nor is there any statement about what happens if there is no such list.

Moreover, the spec does not address the situation the OP has: all that's desired is authentication, authorization is not needed or desired.
