 Splitting this out from #4110.

 The headings hierarchy in the Themes section has room for improvements for
 better SEO and accessibility:

 As mentioned in #4112 the logo shouldn't be a `h1`. The main topic in this
 section is "Themes" so the candidate for the main `h1` is "Theme
 Directory" or, maybe better, this section should use the same design used
 for the Plugin section.

 All the themes use a `h3` heading so one level is skipped. Instead of
 bumping them up by one level, I'd suggest to add a `h2` before the themes
 list. Worth noting in the theme details page, there's already a link-back
 that says "Return to Themes List". I'd suggest to add a  "Themes List"
 `h2` before the themes list.

 In the theme details page, "Theme Directory" is the main `h1`:

 This is inconsistent with the Plugins section, where the plugin name is
 the main `h1`. Suggested: make the Theme's name the main `h1`, as the
 Theme is the detail page main topic.

 **"Commercial Themes" section:**
 "Commercially Supported GPL Themes" should be the only `h1` in the page.
 All the themes listed there use a `h3`. Suggested: add a "Themes List"
 `h2` before the themes list.

 **"Upload Your Theme" section:**
 "Getting Started" should should be the only `h1` in the page. However,
 this title doesn't tell users ''what'' to get started with. Suggested:
 change the title to make clear it's about getting started with uploading
 your theme on the WordPress theme directory.

 **Upload theme page:**

 "Submit Your Theme ..." should be the only `h1` in the page. The other
 headings should be bumped up to `h2`.

 Please consider going through all the pages in this section is out of the
 scope of this ticket. However, these are general guidelines that should be
 applied everywhere.
