 While reviewing all extant uses of generated content for #40428, I came
 across three classes where I couldn't identify any usage.

 Starting here: https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/blob/trunk/src/wp-admin/css/forms.css#L1469

 The classes `.email-personal-data`, `.email-personal-data--sending`, and
 `.email-personal-data--sent` don't appear to be in use.

 They were committed in https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/commit/33979450aca7de46e784eb2d422b8772b24ebda3, but I was unable
 to identify how they were used in that commit, either.

 There are some similar classes that are in use: `export-personal-data-
 success`, for example, which makes me think that these are earlier
 versions of the implementation that were never removed.

 That said, just because I can't find these doesn't mean they aren't there;
 and there may be additional CSS here that isn't in use.
