#7695: Restructure wp.org profile fields.

We have account settings in two places:
- "WP.org Profile": https://profiles.wordpress.org/me
- "Forum Profile": https://wordpress.org/support/users/profile
This ticket proposes that we restructure the "WP.org Profile" by combining
fields and moving the Two-Factor Authentication settings from the "Forum
Profile" to the "WP.org Profile" making account-related settings easier to
find.
This is how "WP.org Profile" is currently organized:
**General**
- Username
- Email
- Security (Links to support forum)
- GitHub Username
- Name
- About Me
- Website Url
- Current Location
- WordPress Origin Story
As you can see we have a mix of Account-related (u/email/security/GitHub)
and profile fields.
**Extras**
- Company
- Job Title
- Interests
- WordPress Usage
It isn't clear what "Extras" is referring to as these are simply more
profile fields. I first thought, "Oh maybe it's because its all the meta
details", but no, fields in the "General" section also appear there.
**Contribution**
(This is fine.)
**Suggestion:**
- Rename "General" to "Profile"
- Move the following fields to "Account & Security" tab
- Username
- GitHub Username
- Security (2fa controls from Forum Profile)
- Remove "Email" as its included in 2fa.
