New description:

 The download page (wordpress.org/download/ and rosetta variants) should
 include the following script.

 Note that:
 - URL/etc values should be localised where appropriate.
 - Software versions should be maintained/correct.
 - The `description` is taken from the page's meta description.
 - The 'date modified' and `version` values should correspond with the
 latest release (i.e., the time that `latest.zip` was last updated).
 - Google requires a `operatingSystem` property, which doesn't quite fit
 our context, so I've intentionally botched this into an array of vaguely-
 useful values. It'll do as-is, though feel free to refine+improve+extend.

Comment (by jonoaldersonwp):

 @dufresnesteven Their wording is poor.
 Resolved with the addition of a `"applicationCategory": "WebApplication"`
 property/value pair.
