 Users: A11y: Improve title attributes in author link functions.

 Remove the title attribute from `the_author_posts_link()` and related
 functions, retaining text for use in `the_author_posts_link` filter, and
 add parameter to disable title attributes in `the_author_link()`.

 Default behavior will still differentiate the two links, but adds the
 option to remove all title attributes.

 Props sabernhardt, alh0319, adnanlimdi, audrasjb, joedolson.
 Fixes #62835. See #26559.
