Introduce a revenue:: tag vocabulary that marks the commercial function a third party performs (ad exchange, affiliate network, payment processor, paywall, donation platform, ...). This enables monetization analysis of websites on top of WhoTracks.Me data without touching the category taxonomy. Tag existing patterns with their revenue role and add patterns and organizations for payment, subscription, donation and affiliate vendors that were not yet in the database. Document the vocabulary and authoring rules in docs/revenue-tags.md.
