Add GCLID field to Salesforce

Overview

We would like to add the GCLID URL parameter from Google Ads to Salesforce.
GCLID is a unique identifier that Google Ads generates for each click
We can parse it from the URL that Google uses to send traffic to our landing pages
We want to add that as a field in Salesforce, similar to the manner in which we already add UTM params to Salesforce
