Message:

Twenty Twenty One: Remove Skiplink shim for Internet Explorer.

No version of Internet Explorer is still supported by WordPress or Microsoft. Usage of Internet Explorer has dropped to about 0.1%.

Follow up to [61628] to also remove JS that fixed skip link behavior for IE. Also remove overlooked contents of ie-editor.css.map.

Props sabernhardt, westonruter, joedolson.
Fixes #64590.

 /**
- * Fixes skip link focus in IE11.
- *
- * This does not enqueue the script because it is tiny and because it is only for IE11,
- * thus it does not warrant having an entire dedicated blocking script being loaded.
+ * Adds an HTML comment about the lack of Internet Explorer support.
+ *
+ * This originally printed a script to fix the skip link focus behavior in IE11.
  *
  * @since Twenty Twenty-One 1.0
  * @deprecated Twenty Twenty-One 1.9 Removed from wp_print_footer_scripts action.
+ * @deprecated Twenty Twenty-One 2.8 Removed Internet Explorer support.
