Merge or/and refine genome identifier concepts

From #783 re deprecation on GenomeReviews ID (http://edamontology.org/data_2751):

Although this might be the best option, let's for the sake of being on the safe side give it another thought here, about what the best replacedBy would be.

Agreed with @hmenager and @LucieLamothe to merge Genome identifier, Genome accession, and Genome build identifier, as these would be used randomly by most users

The data_2749 is in any case the best bet for a replacement, although we could have been more careful and instead of replacedBy use consider for it. However, only used once, namely in https://bio.tools/genomereviews, and the Genome identifier/accession/build identifier need a revision.

Merging those concepts will be the rudimentary option, we can consider whether we need some distinctions, but then rather more obvious ones than current (e.g. by species, version, location, specimen, ...).
