Summary

Neither of the removed links is crucial; one of them refers to a site that has
since started being malicious; while the Web Archive links remain safe, some
scanners warn about such links. Removing them is the safest thing to do.

Fixes gh-4981

@sileclercq It will be included in jQuery 3.6.1 as can be seen by looking at the Milestone field. We don't plan any special release just with this patch as this is not an actual vulnerability.
