#48533: TwentyTwenty: Skiplink, author by-line, post date intro text, and comments
link reading as one word instead of several while using a screen reader

---------------------------+-----------------------------
 For the current version of the TwentyTwenty theme, the skiplink, author
 byline, postdate, and comments link read as one word while using a screen
 reader. For example, the skiplink reads "skiptothecontent" instead of
 "skip to the content". "post author" reads as "Postauthor", "post date"
 reads as "postdate" and "1 comment on hello world!" reads "1
 CommentonHelloworld!". Speech has been copied into this ticket. Markup for
 the skiplink, for example, looks fine, suspecct the problem is in the
 screen reader text class as there's no aria here to muddy the waters.
 Tested with: Jaws 2019 and 2020, Firefox 70.0.1, Chrome (latest), NVDA
 2019.3, latest Narrator. Behavior is uniform across all. Same goes for the
 other exmples.
