#26601: Inappropriate content in heading on Themes page

 At the top of the themes.php page there is a second level heading which
 contains the following:
 * The text Themes
 * The number of themes being shown
 * The Add New link
 * The Search installed themes input and label

 So on an example page a screen reader voices "Themes7 Add New Search
 Installed Themes".

 The use of headings is good for accessibility as it gives screen reader
 users a way of finding what they are looking for on a page. But in this
 case there is too much within the heading.

 Suggested solution: Keep the word Themes within the heading and move the
 other elements outside the `<h2>...</h2>`
