Comment:

 In [changeset:"61415" 61415]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="61415"
 Scripts: Remove non-HTML5 script support.

 Remove the following behaviors that are obsolete in HTML5:

 - CDATA wrappers around `SCRIPT` tag contents.
 - Conversion of boolean attributes to strings (attribute `async="async"`
 becomes `async`).

 HTML5 was released in 2008 and data suggests virtually all WordPress sites
 are served as HTML5. See #59883 for more details.

 Developed in https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/10660.

 Props jonsurrell, westonruter, azaozz, soyebsalar01, dmsnell.
 Fixes #64442. See #59883.
