 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="56583"
 Bundled Theme: Implement the_header_image_tag function for enhanced
 compatibility for older core themes.

 The `the_header_image_tag` function was introduced in WordPress 4.4 as
 part of [35594]. It is used in all themes created post WordPress 4.4 that
 supported header images. The function `get_header_image_tag` continues to
 get updated with new image features, like lazy loading, async decoding and
 fetch priority. To ensure our core themes maintain compatibility and
 benefit from these enhancements, a backward compatibility shim has been
 applied, integrating the `the_header_image_tag` function into the
 following core themes:

 - Twenty Ten
 - Twenty Eleven
 - Twenty Twelve
 - Twenty Fourteen
 - Twenty Sixteen

 This change ensures future compatibility and modern image features are
 applied for header images to these older themes.

 Props spacedmonkey, flixos90, mukesh27.
 Fixes #58675.
