#### Summary

Exports the scan data as an archive file.

This method processes the saved scan data and exports it to a standard archive format
that can be used with external 3D processing tools or Niantic's VPS map.

RecordingExporter for a non-blocking option.

#### Returns

The path of the archive file, if the export was successful, nil if otherwise. Export failure indicates something was wrong with the saved scan.
