Delete icon alt and comment text when deleting icon
Description
Steps to reproduce
Log in
If you don’t have an icon, icon alt text, and icon comment text for at least one of your pseuds, add them:
Hi, username! > My Preferences > Manage My Pseuds
Follow “Edit” for the pseud you’d like to modify
Use “Upload a new icon” choose an image from your device
Fill in the “Icon alt text” and “Icon comment text” fields
Press “Update,” which will send you back to your dashboard
Once you have a pseud with an icon, icon alt text, and icon comment text, remove the icon:
Hi, username! > My Preferences > Manage My Pseuds
Follow “Edit” for the pseud you’d like to modify
Check “Delete your icon and revert to our default”
Press “Update”
What happens
Your icon is deleted!
But any alt text you had sticks around, so we’re basically lying to screen readers about what the image is.
What should happen
The “Delete your icon and revert to our default” checkbox should be renamed “Delete your icon and revert to our default. This will also remove your icon alt text and comment text.”
It should be updated to provide the described behavior.
This should also apply to admins deleting icons (AO3-4595).

I deleted my pseuds' icon and observed the alt text was gone too. However, the text change (to “Delete your icon and revert to our default. This will also remove your icon alt text and comment text.”) doesn’t seem to be there.
