the_custom_header_markup() + get_header_image_tag() incorrect alt text for images.

Hi,

In short, the core the_custom_header_markup() function relies on the core get_header_image_tag() to create the code for Header Images.

For some reason the get_header_image_tag() function has this code in it:

<?php
    $attr = wp_parse_args(
        $attr,
        array(
            'src'    => $header->url,
            'width'  => $width,
            'height' => $height,
            'alt'    => get_bloginfo( 'name' ),
        )
    );

This means that users can't manually specify their own alt text for header images, which is bad in multiple ways.

Could this be fixed in a future update?

Thank you.
