Comment:

 In [changeset:"43157" 43157]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="43157"
 Privacy: Store plugin callbacks in associative array for flexibility.

 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.

 Props desrosj, allendav, ocean90.
 Merges [43154] to the 4.9 branch.
 Fixes #43931.
