Fixed #31032 -- Updated admin browser support FAQ for 2020.

Following web standards, the modern _evergreen_ browsers are all
supported. This applies equally to mobile platforms. Assuming current
trends continue, this should be a sustainable policy.

Microsoft deprecated all versions of Internet Explorer. IE 11, the last
version, is described as a "compatibility solution" rather than a web
browser. Whilst it will receive security updates for the lifetime of
Windows 10 it's use is actively discouraged.

The IE 11 downloads page makes it clear: "We recommend you use the new
Microsoft Edge".

What browsers are supported for using the admin?
================================================
The admin provides a fully-functional experience to `YUI's A-grade`_ browsers,
with the notable exception of IE6, which is not supported.
The admin provides a fully-functional experience to the recent versions of
modern, web standards compliant browsers. On desktop this means Chrome, Edge,
Firefox, Opera, Safari, and others.
There *may* be minor stylistic differences between supported browsers—for
example, some browsers may not support rounded corners. These are considered
acceptable variations in rendering.
On mobile and tablet devices, the admin provides a responsive experience for
web standards compliant browsers. This includes the major browsers on both
Android and iOS.
