There are a variety of operations a WordPress user can only perform if they have the correct capabilities. A REST API client should only display UI for one of these operations if the WordPress user can perform the operation.
Rather than requiring REST API clients to calculate whether to display UI based on potentially complicated combinations of user capabilities, `targetSchema` allows us to expose a single flag to show whether the corresponding UI should be displayed.
This change also includes flags on post objects for the following actions:
- `action-publish`: The current user can publish this post.
- `action-sticky`: The current user can make this post sticky, and the post type supports sticking.
- `action-assign-author': The current user can change the author on this post.
- `action-assign-{$taxonomy}`: The current user can assign terms from the "$taxonomy" taxonomy to this post.
- `action-create-{$taxonomy}`: The current user can create terms int the "$taxonomy" taxonomy.

WordCamps are celebrations of the local WordPress Community and once a local one is scheduled, people in that community should know it is coming. This adjusts the WordPress Events in the dashboard widgets to always display a WordCamp, even if there are multiple Meetups happening first.

When a term query using `fields=all_with_object_id` hits the cache, the
cached `stdClass` objects must be converted to `WP_Term` objects. This
was overlooked when `WP_Term_Query` was refactored to support object
queries in [38667].

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.
This was accidentally not backported to the `4.9` branch before the beta/RC phase, but there was a consensus that it is safe to do that this late in the release cycle.

A user is required to have the `manage_privacy_options` capability in order to determine which page is set as the privacy policy (the `wp_page_for_privacy_policy`). Given that, it doesn't make sense to allow users without that capability to edit or delete the page.
A similar situation exists with the `page_for_posts` and `page_on_front` options, but Editors are allowed to edit those pages. The reason that this situation is different is because it is more likely that an administrator will want to restrict modifications to the privacy policy, than it is that they will want to allow modifications. Modifications to the policy often require specialized knowledge of local laws, and can have implications for compliance with those laws.

Previously, personal data exports were stored in `wp-content/uploads/exports`, which is generic enough that it's likely there are existing folders with that name, either created by plugins or manually by administrators. If that folder were reused by Core, then `wp_privacy_delete_old_export_files()` would delete all of the existing files inside it, which is almost certainly not what the site owner wants or expects.
To avoid that, the folder is being renamed to include a specific reference to Core, and a more verbose description of its purpose. With those factored in, it's very unlikely that there will be any conflicts with existing folders.
The `wp_privacy_exports_dir()` and `wp_privacy_exports_url()` functions were introduced to provide a canonical source for the location, and the `wp_privacy_exports_dir` and `wp_privacy_exports_url` filters were introduced to allow plugins to customize it.

Previously, the link used absolute positioning, in order to stick it at the bottom of the page. That was done in order to create visual separation between it and the "action" links, like "Lost Your Password?"
The absolute positioning can cause conflicts in some situations, though. For example, if extra text or error notices are added above the form, then the login link would be positioned on top of other elements.
Switching to relative positioning with extra margins avoids those issues, while maintaining the visual separation between the "action" links and the privacy policy link.

r43158 introduced a new admin pointer for the privacy tools added in 4.9.6. With the previous positioning, though, sometimes the `Dismiss` link would be fixed off screen, making it impossible for the user to dismiss the pointer. This happened when there were enough extra menu items, or when the viewport height was short enough.
This commit repositions the pointer to work around that problem. One down side of this workaround is that the arrow will not always be positioned next to the `Tools` menu, where it should be. That's an acceptable compromise given the current time constraints, though. A long term solution would be to make `WP_Pointer` robust enough to handle this use case.
