Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The current bulk export format does only support one entity per export format.

Describe the solution you'd like We would like to export some graph or list of entities from multiple entity types. Not all export formats are suitable due to the configuration amouns, our use cases would be:

Trigger some export of entities (OrgUnit, Person, Project) of some topic/search in cerif-xml to get some little graph
Generate some mixed list of entities (Product, Publication) in bibliographic / csl format. https://github.com/4Science/DSpace/issues/429

Describe alternatives or workarounds you've considered

output of the single export process has to be appended to some previous output. So perhaps work for some wrapper.
Extension of the ItemExportFormatService on the backend/frontend necessary
