Subject: [PATCH] Export: Create an export-specific filter for post titles.

Since WordPress 2.5 and 2.6, `post_content` and `post_excerpt` have both had export-specific filters: `the_content_export`, and `the_excerpt_export`, respectively. `post_title`, however, has used `the_title_rss`, which behaves differently in two important ways:

- It strips HTML tags from the string.
- It HTML-encodes the title string.

These behaviours are not ideal for exports, since it changes the post title, resulting in data loss in export files, and incorrect post duplicate matching on import. This changes replaces the usage of `the_title_rss` with a new filter, `the_title_export`. The new filter is intended to be used in the same as `the_content_export` and `the_excerpt_export`.

Props jmdodd, audrasjb.
Fixes #52250.
