Update the current jquery library to 1.8.0.

This release is 13kbs larger than the currently used 1.3.2. (32kb vs 19kb)

Some methods/functions used in RB might have been deprecated. See http://api.jquery.com/category/deprecated/.

This update hosts all updates/improvements from 1.4 to 1.8.

Notable improvements: 

This update would bring in multiple performance improvements: 
- Faster selectors, events, and popular methods
- Better cross-browser compatibility
- Use of new methods and syntax

Djblets might require an update as well.
Local dev. Things seem to be working so far. No errors.

More testing to be done.
