 In [changeset:"61597" 61597]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="61597"
 Media: Add external icon to alt text links.

 This link opens in a new tab, and needs a visual indicator to provide an
 affordance to sighted users that this will happen.

 Props burtrw, sabernhardt, audrasjb, westonruter, joedolson.
 Fixes #64374.
