r43158 introduced a new admin pointer for the privacy tools added in 4.9.6. With the previous positioning, though, sometimes the `Dismiss` link would be fixed off screen, making it impossible for the user to dismiss the pointer. This happened when there were enough extra menu items, or when the viewport height was short enough.
This commit repositions the pointer to work around that problem. One down side of this workaround is that the arrow will not always be positioned next to the `Tools` menu, where it should be. That's an acceptable compromise given the current time constraints, though. A long term solution would be to make `WP_Pointer` robust enough to handle this use case.

There doesn't appear to be any way for an attacker to introduce malicious input into the URL, unless a plugin is filtering the URL to add it, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

The previous `user_email` value was redundant, because it always matched `$request_data->email`. That value might be different from where the message is sent, though, if the `user_erasure_fulfillment_email_to` filter is used. If they are different, then callbacks for the `user_confirmed_action_email_content` filter may want to distinguish between the email address of the user making the request, and the email address that the confirmation notification is being sent to.

`ResourceBundle` is only countable in PHP 5.4+, which can be considered an acceptable edge case for WordPress core purposes.

Previously, when a plugin updated its suggested privacy policy text, an admin notice was shown on all screens in the Administration Panels. That was done in order to make sure that administrators were aware of it, so that they could update their policy if needed. That was a very heavy-handed and intrusive approach, though, which leads to a poor user experience, and notice fatigue.
An alternative approach is to use bubble notifications in the menu, similar to when plugins have updates that need to be installed. That still makes it obvious that something needs the administrator's attention, but is not as distracting as a notice.
The notice will still appear on the Privacy page, though, since it is relevant to that screen, and provides an explanation of why the bubble is appearing.

Previously the admin didn't have any way to know if a pending request was ready to be processed, aside from manually checking the Export/Erase pages. Sending them an email is a much more convenient option.

Previously the pointer overlapped the menu in order to draw attention to the fact that it applies to both the `Tools` and `Settings` menus. That caused a conflict if the menu was collapsed, though, because the icons were covered by the pointer and therefore inaccessible.
Additionally, minor tweaks were made to the text order and formatting. The order of the two sections was swapped in the title and paragraph, in order to match the order of the corresponding menu items. The spacing around headings and paragraphs was tweaked to remove extraneous whitespace.

- Separate the guide text form the suggested policy text.
- Add table of content for easier navigation.
- Move the content to tools.php (prevents the settings menu of being open).
- Add a link to the guide from the Privacy settings screen.

r42986 introduced the beginnings of an Ajax handler for processing requests to erase personal data. At the time, a method for marking requests as completed was planned, but had not yet been created. This commit introduces that mechanism, bringing the erasure process closer to completion.

Whenever an admin initiates a download or email of a personal data export, a fresh copy of the file is generated. Previously, a new filename was used each time, which could lead to situations where a URL that was emailed to a data subject is broken.
That can be avoided by reusing the same filename when building fresh archives.

r43046 introduced `wp_schedule_delete_old_privacy_export_files()` to schedule the `wp_privacy_delete_old_export_files` cron job, but it did not check to make sure it wasn't running in the context of the install process. When it did run in that context, it created a database error, because the necessary database tables don't exist at that point.
Checking the current context and returning early during the installation phase avoids that issue.

The new features are very important for some users, because of their GDPR obligations. They're also spread across multiple top-level menus, making them less discoverable. An admin pointer will help to ensure that users are aware of the new tools and how to find them.
