Generate a standard-format bookmarks HTML export file from Safari on iOS/iPadOS 16.

This shortcut endeavors to use iOS16/iPadOS16's new Find Bookmarks action to generate an export file of all one's current Safari bookmarks that can be imported freely into desktop browsers. (Tested on Chrome, Edge, and Opera.)

Here's a visual of the format:

<!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1>
<!-- This is an automatically generated file.
It will be read and overwritten.
DO NOT EDIT! -->
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<TITLE>Bookmarks</TITLE>
<H1>Bookmarks</H1>
<DL><p>
[Combined Text]
