 Builds on the work done by #43438 to assemble the data.

 Per ticket scrub discussion in Making WordPress gdpr-compliance chat today
 we are leaning toward mimicking the approach Facebook uses for exporting
 all a user's data (but just for personal data) i.e. a ZIP file with a
 "mini-website" inside comprised of HTML and other files (e.g. images) and
 including a single index HTML as well as a JSON blob (to address not just
 Article 15 but Article 20 as well.)

 Note: for very large attachments, we might also adopt the approach
 Facebook takes and provide a time-limited link in the export HTML from
 which the user can separately download those files - this might warrant a
 separate issue however.
