Comment:

 Thanks @nickylimjj for getting this started, your patch worked nicely but
 I found the more tokens we get the more convoluted the value of that row
 becomes, as well the User profile information we latched in to is for the
 profile. I felt we should isolate the tokens to their own section so have
 refreshed your patch in
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/45889/45889.3.diff
 45889.3.diff] to go that direction and provide a unit test for coverage.

 Note: This follows the recent patch I placed on #43921

 I also included in the export the expiration and last login date as that
 information can assist users attempting to use the data to vet if any
 malicious sessions exist.

 Give it a test please and hopefully we can address this in 5.4.
