Media: Fix lazy-loading bug by avoiding to modify content images when creating an excerpt.

The `wp_filter_content_tags()` function, which modifies image tags for example to optimize performance, is hooked into the `the_content` filter by default. When rendering an excerpt for a post that doesn't have a manually provided excerpt, the post content is used to generate the excerpt, handled by the `wp_trim_excerpt()` function.

Prior to this changeset, this led to `wp_filter_content_tags()` being called on the content when generating the excerpt, which is wasteful as all tags are stripped from the excerpt, and it furthermore could result in a lazy-loading bug when the post content contained images, as those images were being counted even though they would never be rendered as part of the excerpt.

This changeset fixes the bug and slightly improves performance for generating an excerpt by temporarily unhooking the `wp_filter_content_tags()` function from the `the_content` filter when using it to generate the excerpt.

Fixes #56588.
