Issue Description:
Many images in the language guide on docs.swift.org are missing meaningful alt text. Please fix so people using screen readers can fully experience the docs.
For example: in the strings and characters section, the image illustrating handling of indentation in multi-line strings has the image path as its alt text.
@swift-ci create
Heya, I would love to work on this issue. Can you assign it to me?
Also, we are talking about these images right?
Hey @Nitya-Pasrija, yes, these images need descriptions. If you're still interested in working on this; a PR is welcome! I'm interested as well, so feel free to tag me in discussions. (For context, I think one of our early publication systems didn't propagate image descriptions to the rendered book, so these have been missing for a while.)
