Use a dist README fixture kept in the jQuery repository instead of modifying
an existing one. This makes the jQuery repository the single source of truth
when it comes to jQuery releases and it makes it easier to make changes to
README without worrying how it will affect older jQuery lines.
The commit also ES6ifies build/release.js & build/release/dist.js
Closes gh-4614
jQuery source has been migrated in gh-4541 from AMD to ES modules. To maintain
support for consumers of our AMD modules, this commits adds a task transpiling
the ES modules sources in `src/` to AMD in `amd/`.
A "Load with AMD" checkbox was also restored to the QUnit setup. Note that,
contrary to jQuery 3.x, AMD files need to be generated via `grunt amd` or
`grunt` as sources are not authored in ECMAScript modules. To achieve a similar
no-compile experience during jQuery 4.x testing, use the new "Load as modules"
checkbox which works in all supported browsers except for IE & Edge (the
legacy, EdgeHTML-based one).

Closes gh-4554
So far, only browser-based JS files were required to be in strict mode (in the
function form). This commit adds such a requirement to Node.js scripts where
the global form is preferred. All Node.js scripts in sloppy mode were
converted to strict mode.
Closes gh-4499
This commit removes Sizzle from jQuery, inlining its code & removing obsolete
workarounds where applicable.
The selector-native module has been removed. Further work on the selector
module may decrease the size enough that it will no longer be necessary. If
it turns out it's still useful, we'll reinstate it but the code will look
different anyway as we'll want to share as much code as possible with
the existing selector module.
The Sizzle AUTHORS.txt file has been merged with the jQuery one - people are
sorted by their first contributions to either of the two repositories.
The commit reduces the gzipped jQuery size by 1460 bytes compared to master.
Closes gh-4395
Tracked bower dependencies are located at "src/sizzle" and "test/libs".
The source-destination mapping is in the Gruntfile.
When updating a bower dependency, update the version in bower.json, run
`grunt bower`, and then commit the result. When adding a dependency,
update the bowercopy task accordingly.
Fixes#14615.
Closes gh-1452.
