1270991 - Update jQuery to 1.12.x

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Bugzilla-General, enhancement)

Description

[Frédéric Buclin]

Bugzilla currently bundles jQuery 1.11.1, released in May 2014. The latest 1.x release is 1.12.3. There have been many fixes meanwhile, especially about IE11 and Safari 8, as well as support for some new (less known) browsers (Yandex.Browser comes to mind). We should bundle the latest 1.12.x version.

We cannot bundle jQuery 2.2.x yet, because it dropped support for IE6-8, and the IE8 market share is still quite high, with 6% as of last month.

I also included jquery/plugins/datatables and jquery/plugins/devbridgeAutocomplete in this patch, as they both have updates too. But I didn't include jquery/ui as a new version is coming very soon now (currently at 1.12.0-rc2). jQueryUI 1.12 will be the last release to support IE8-10.
