Ad targeting

Targeting is used to set precise parameters so that users can see ads that are more relevant to them. Here's an example of using targeting:

Format	Class
Sticky banners Inline banners	`AdRequest`
Interstitial ads Rewarded ads App open ads	`AdRequestConfiguration`

// AdRequest example
    BannerAd(
        adUnitId: _adUnitId,
        adSize: BannerAdSize.sticky(width: 320),
        adRequest: AdRequest(
            age: 25,
            gender: Gender.male,
            contextTags: ['games', 'flutter', 'test'],
            contextQuery: 'user_search_query',
            location: AdLocation(
                latitude: 60.0,
                longitude: 30.0,
                accuracy: 100,
            ),
            parameters: {
                'custom1': 'value1',
                'custom2': 'value2',
            },
        ),
    );

// AdRequestConfiguration example
adRequestConfiguration: AdRequestConfiguration(
    adUnitId: _adUnitId,
    age: 25,
    gender: 'male', // or "female"
    contextTags: ['games', 'flutter', 'test'],
    contextQuery: 'user_search_query', // search query string
    location: AdLocation(
      latitude: 60.0,
      longitude: 30.0,
      accuracy: 100,
    ),
    parameters: {
      'custom1': 'value1',
      'custom2': 'value2',
    },
)

Parameter	Description
`age`	The user's age in string format, for example: “14”, “18”.
`gender`	The user's gender: “male”, “female”. You can use the `Gender` object to get a valid string.
`location`	The user's location as detected by your app. To use location data, you must obtain the user's consent and then set `MobileAds.setLocationConsent(true)` in the SDK.
`contextQuery`	The user's search query in the app. For instance, if the user searched for a car, this parameter might look like this: “Buy a used car in Moscow”.
`contextTags`	The keywords from the page the user was viewing. These could be the page's title, parts of its content, tags, and other elements. For a page with a car search, this parameter might look like this: “buy a car”, “used car”, “in Moscow”.
