This PR adds ≤11 as a valid range for Internet Explorer. With IE's market share now less than 1%, along with the age of its releases, I don't think most developers will care about how far back something has been supported in IE (or in most cases, IE support altogether). Additionally, this will aid in speeding up the removal of null and true values.

This PR is inspired by a comment from @foolip in #10381.

I notice this documentation is misleading. It's not in "some" version of Chromium-based Edge, to use this range one has to test Edge 79 specifically.

Same issue with Opera 15 range.

We should probably remove those ranges :)
