New: Allow export in GSC tabs

In addition to seeing the keywords that are driving traffic to your site and which stories are showing in Google Discover, you can now also see your stories that are getting featured in Google News and boosting your content performance.

• Fixed visual bug where Referrer Listings did not properly show conversion numbers
• Speed improvements for GSC backfill
