 Update autoprefixer browser support matrix

 WordPress no longer supports many old old browsers:
 https://make.wordpress.org/core/2017/04/23/target-browser-coverage/

 This also removes alot of no longer necessary CSS. It served us well, but
 we are never getting back together with IE8,9,10.

 So, in the (paraphrased) words of Taylor Swift:

 I remember when we dropped support  the first time
 Saying, "This is it, I've had enough, " 'cause like
 We hadn't seen many users in a month
 When you said you needed flexbox. (What?)
 Then you postMessage again and say
 "IE8, I miss you and I swear I'm gonna change, trust me."
 Remember how that lasted for a day?
 I say, "I hate the box model, " we break up, you call me, "I love css-
 grids."
 Ooh, we called it off again last night
 But ooh, this time I'm telling you, I'm telling you

 We are never ever ever supporting IE 8,9,10,
 We are never ever ever supporting IE 8,9,10,
 You go talk to EDGE, talk to my FIREFOX, talk to CHROME
 But we are never ever ever ever getting back together
 Like, ever...

 Fixes #37651.
 Props stunnedbeast, netweb, jorbin.
