Strip jQuery's cache-busting parameter

If jQuery `cache: false` ajax parameter is set, the `&_=<TIMESTAMP>`
param will have been appended to the request URL. Because this URL will
eventually be used to replace the page URL, we need to ensure that we're
stripping the cache-busting parameter before that, like we do with the
"_pjax" internal parameter as well.
