 Code Modernization: Rename parameters that use reserved keywords in
 bundled themes.

 While using reserved PHP keywords as parameter name labels is allowed, in
 the context of function calls using named parameters in PHP 8.0+, this
 will easily lead to confusion. To avoid that, it is recommended not to use
 reserved keywords as function parameter names.

 This commit:
 * Renames the `$class` parameter to `$css_class` in:
  * `twentysixteen_excerpt()`
  * `twentynineteen_post_classes()`
 * Renames the `$echo` parameter to `$display` in:
  * `twentythirteen_entry_date()`
  * `twentytwenty_generate_css()`
  * `twentytwenty_site_logo()`
  * `twentytwenty_site_description()`
  * `twenty_twenty_one_generate_css()`
