Content images receive AI-generated descriptive alt text; decorative images (icons, spacers, toggles) receive alt="" per WCAG best practice. Also adds Image Descriptions section to the accessibility page, and fixes Pandoc Lua writers to output alt attributes. 67 files, covering help docs, news archive, ENCODE pages, portal pages, and session examples. refs #37254
