"Manager" and "Owner" are roles. Each role is associated with a set
of permissions. A user can use the permissions granted to any of its
roles.

In your example:

  "user 1" has all permissions of role "Manager"

  "user 2" has these permissions and the ones from "Owner"

  As usually (though not necessarily), the "Manager" permissions
  are a superset of the "Owner" permissions, there is (usually)
  no effective difference between the permissions of "user 1" ans
  "user 2"

 > Has a 'Manager' has to be a 'Owner' ???
No.

 > Is it needed for something, that a 'Manager' has 'Owner' role ?
Not in the usual setup (but you may use a strange role->permission mapping).
