Whenever an admin initiates a download or email of a personal data export, a fresh copy of the file is generated. Previously, a new filename was used each time, which could lead to situations where a URL that was emailed to a data subject is broken.
That can be avoided by reusing the same filename when building fresh archives.

The new features are very important for some users, because of their GDPR obligations. They're also spread across multiple top-level menus, making them less discoverable. An admin pointer will help to ensure that users are aware of the new tools and how to find them.

The personal data export and erasure tools allow plugins to register their own callbacks, in order to add additional data to the export and erasure processes. Previously, these were registered without specifying a constant identifier in the array of callbacks. Using mutable integers makes it difficult for plugins to modify the callbacks of other plugins, though.
Using associative array keys instead provides a covenient and reliable way to identify and interact with another plugin's callbacks.

Multisite networks have a variety of use cases, and in many of them single-site administrators are not trusted to take actions that affect the whole network, require making decisions about legal compliance, etc. By default, those actions should require super admin capabilities. Plugins can be used to override that behavior if a particular site's use case calls for it.

This runs immediately after the data export file has been successfully created, allowing plugins to introduce some workflow customizations. For example, a plugin could password-protect the export file, for peace of mind, even though the CSPRN in the filename makes brute force attacks nearly impossible.

The primary means of protecting the files is the CSPRN appended to the filename, but there is no reason to keep the files after the data subject has downloaded them, so deleting them provides an additional layer of protection. Previously this was done from `wp_privacy_generate_personal_data_export_file()`, but that does not guarantee that it will be run regularly, and on smaller sites that could result in export files being exposed for much longer than necessary.
`wp_privacy_delete_old_export_files()` was moved to a front end file, so that it can be called from `cron.php`.
This introduces the `wp_privacy_export_expiration` filter, which allows plugins to customize how long the exports are kept before being deleted.
`index.html` was added to the `$exclusions` parameter of `list_files()` to make sure that it isn't deleted. If it were, then poorly-configured servers would allow the directory to be traversed, exposing all of the exported files.

`rand()` is deterministic and therefore offers much less protection in this context. `wp_generate_password()` is a convenient wrapper around `wp_rand()`, which uses `random_int()` to generate cryptographically-secure psuedorandom numbers.

While intended as a playful error message, `Cheatin’ uh?` can be interpreted as insulting or accusatory in an already stressful situation. This replaces Cheatin’ with more meaningful error messages, depending on the error that occurs.

While caching here seemed like a good idea in theory, in practice the cache would be often stale causing development issues.
We exclude common folders (such as `node_modules`) from the scanning to avoid directories which are not useful to the end-user, so as long as those exclusion lists are held up this shouldn't cause too much of a degredation in the future.
We may consider adding caching here again in the future if it's determined that it is really needed.
