Enforce GVL ID for bid adapters that claim gdpr support

[muuki88]

The last documentation committee meeting on 15.06.2023 decided that bidders that claim gdpr support need to define a gvl_id .

aliased adapters

For aliased bidders, the bidders should either

• specify their own gvl_id if available
• or specify the bidder gvl_id they are an alias for along with the bidder code

Example:

The appNexus adapter has a few aliases

https://github.com/prebid/Prebid.js/blob/1e8241413774677c9951024ef75d60c78e5fe527/modules/appnexusBidAdapter.js#L104-L116

• adasta , which operates under the appNexus GVL ID must specify gvl_id: 32 (appNexus)
• emxdigital, which has it's own GVL ID, must only specify the ID gvl_id: 182

Reasoning

• publishers have no means to control if gdpr is actually enforced without a gvl_id .
• without a gvl_id , prebid will block requests from the adapter as there's no way check for consent

Acceptance Criteria

• All bid adapters that claim gdpr_support: true have a gvl_id set or are changed to gdpr_support: false
• All aliased bid adapters that reuse the original adapter gvl_id must append the adapters bid code to the gvl_id field

@muuki88 plz update pbjs/pbs bid adapter documentations with the new specs.

Docs committee unnecessarily forces companies to get GVL ID while actually some companies never need it.
