With IE11 no longer supported, the primary problem with assistive technology support for native HTML5 elements no longer applies.
This commit removes the `role` attribute from the following HTML5 elements with default landmark roles, per formerly required role attributes and W3C.

Role="navigation" was required for assistive technology to recognize HTML5 element's native ARIA roles while HTML5 and ARIA were being introduced. With the deprecation of IE11, the role attribute is only required when mapping elements that don't have native role.

If a privacy policy has been set, then a link to it will automatically be shown in the footer.
The element containing the "Proudly powered by WordPress" link was chosen for the new policy link, in order to minimize visual conflicts with custom CSS that was written before the new link existed. Unfortunately, some minor conflicts are expected and unavoidable. Adding this link is required as part of GDPR compliance, and the benefits outweigh the downsides.
To further mitigate the conflicts, a new `imprint` class was added to the "Proudly powered..." link, in order to facilitate targeting each link invididually with custom styles.

The WPCS `WordPress.WhiteSpace.PrecisionAlignment` rule throws warnings for a bunch of code that will likely cause issues for `wpcbf`. Fixing these manually beforehand gives us better auto-fixed results later.
