bug 8712 - added alternative text to cover images shown in the search results

This text informs screen reader users that the link is a cover image. At the
moment, orca reads this link as "opac detail link image", which is confusing.

Moreover, the images in individual records already contain 'alt="Cover Image"'
attribute, the present addition will only make it more consistent.

Also, according to WAI, "Images should include equivalent alternative text in
the markup/code"[1].
