Browser support:Download: Drop mentions of oldversion.com
It's not secure to install browsers from a third-party site that's only available via insecure HTTP. Besides, with most browsers updating quickly nowadays, there are not that many reasons to test on very old versions of most browsers. Therefore, let's just remove oldversion.com mentions without a replacement. Closes gh-230 Ref gh-212

<p>jQuery is constantly tested with all of its supported browsers via unit tests. However, a web page using jQuery may not work in the same set of browsers if its own code takes advantage of (or falls prey to) browser-specific behaviors. Testing is essential to fully support a browser. The Microsoft Edge Developer site makes available <a href="https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/vms/">virtual machines</a> for testing many different versions of Internet Explorer. Older versions of other browsers can be found at <a href="http://oldversion.com/">oldversion.com</a>.</p>

<p>Only the most current version of jQuery is tested and updated to fix bugs or add features. Users of older versions that find a bug should upgrade to the latest released version to determine if the bug has already been fixed. The <a href="https://github.com/jquery/jquery-migrate/#readme">jQuery Migrate plugin</a> may be helpful in identifying and fixing problems during a version upgrade.</p>

Be sure to test web pages that use jQuery in all the browsers you want to support. The [Microsoft Developer Resources](https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/) site makes available [virtual machines](https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/vms/) for testing many different versions of Internet Explorer.
