 The user request list tables use
 {{{WP_Privacy_Requests_Table::get_request_counts( $type )}}} to count user
 requests by type.

 If export- and erase bubble counts will be added in #44000 and if e.g.
 plugins or core will add request stats to the dashboard ( e.g. "At a
 glance" or "Activity" metaboxes), then it makes sense to introduce a
 function like:

 {{{
 wp_count_user_requests( $type )
 }}}

 where type is either {{{'remove_personal_data'}}} and
 {{{'export_personal_data'}}}.

 An alternative would be if {{{wp_count_post( $post_type = 'user_request'
 )}}} would support {{{$post_name}}} as well, for the request types.
