You do have them. You don’t see all roles listed in the docs as some are only created by plugins which you don’t have…

Which plugin do I need to get the “Ansible Tower Inventory Reader” role?
Also, how do I install that plugin?

It looks like the foreman_ansible plugin defines the role. foreman_ansible/register.rb at 356b1c46363709d0c2b3a9136fe51faaaf713cc9 · theforeman/foreman_ansible · GitHub

Try:

foreman-installer --enable-foreman-plugin-ansible
