There was a problem hiding this comment.
I removed mentions of Edge from support comments as well. Among other things, this is because many IE workarounds are now hidden behind an isIE check so a support comment mentioning Edge would be confusing as Edge wouldn't execute that code.
IE is quite special here as that's the only browser which we detect as a browser to work around its bugs instead of running support tests.
Also, restrict some workarounds that were applied unconditionally in all browsers to run only in IE now. This slightly increases the size but reduces the performance burden on modern browsers that don't need the workarounds. Also, clean up some comments & remove some obsolete workarounds. Fixes jquerygh-4568
