Add trait: GDPR compliance

[fabianekc]

In some use cases it is relevant to ensure GDPR compliance for the identifiers used. Therefore, I propose to discuss if this trait makes sense and might be added.

@fabianekc are there specific features that make a DID method GDPR compliant? The right to be forgotten comes to mind.

Example definition:

{
    "gdpr-compliant": {
      "type": "boolean",
      "title": "GDPR-compliant",
      "description": "A DID method's ability to fully adhere to the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requirements, ensuring comprehensive protection of personal data and individual privacy rights."
    }
}

The trait has been added. It's up to the method author to provide detailed information on the compliance.

In today's call, we concluded that this trait is too difficult to express in a simple boolean value and not technical enough. Therefore, the trait will be removed.

Yes agreed. As we discussed compliance with data protection can even be altered depending in how the did method is implemented in specific instance.
