Until now, the AJAX script transport only used a script tag to load scripts
for cross-domain requests or ones with `scriptAttrs` set. This commit makes
it also used for all async requests to avoid CSP errors arising from usage
of inline scripts. This also makes `jQuery.getScript` not trigger CSP errors
as it uses the AJAX script transport under the hood.
For sync requests such a change is impossible and that's what `jQuery._evalUrl`
uses. Fixing that is tracked in gh-1895.
The commit also makes other type of requests using the script tag version of the
script transport set its type to "GET", namely async scripts & ones with
`scriptAttrs` set in addition to the existing cross-domain ones.

Previously, `jQuery.ajax` with `dataType: 'json'` with a provided callback was
automatically converted to a jsonp request unless one also specified
`jsonp: false`. Today the preferred way of interacting with a cross-domain
backend is CORS which works in all browsers jQuery 4 will support.
Auto-promoting JSON requests to JSONP ones introduces a security issue as the
developer may be unaware they're not just downloading data but executing code
from a remote domain.
This commit disables the auto-promoting logic.
BREAKING CHANGE: to trigger a JSONP request, it's now required to specify
`dataType: "jsonp"`; previously some requests with `dataType: "json"` were
auto-promoted to JSONP.

The script transport used to evaluate fetched script sources which is
undesirable for unsuccessful HTTP responses. This is different to other data
types where such a convention was fine (e.g. in case of JSON).

Also, run `grunt npmcopy` to sync the "external" directory with dependencies
from package.json. For example, the Sinon library version didn't match.

- getResponseHeader(key) combines all header values for the provided key into a
single result where values are concatenated by ', '. This does not happen for
IE11 since multiple values for the same header are returned on separate lines.
This makes the function only return the last value of the header for IE11.
