[Koha-patches] [PATCH] Bug 3572 Change masthead wording for OPAC account link

There are some notes on the bug page that I want to bring into this
discussion - using 'Click here' is way overkill - anything that looks
like a link is clickable.  I'd say change this to 'My Account' if you
need to make a change, but I'm with Owen who says that this model of
showing your name as a link is used on tons of other sites.
