 Currently when using custom header feature and displaying an image in
 custom header, the
 [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_header_image_tag/
 get_header_image_tag()] function sets the custom header image alt text to
 `get_bloginfo( 'name' )` only.

 It is not possible to override the alt text by setting a custom alt text
 for the image in Media Library.

 To improve accessibility, this should be possible.
