Update jQuery and jQuery UI

[jri]

When we do DOM based topic rendering on the topicmap (see #505) we could leverage jQuery UI's Draggable interaction.
Updating jQuery and jQuery UI is probably a good start.

There is a problem with Dialogs: when a Geomap is open the dialog is *behind* the map (resize the browser window to see it) and thus is not usable. Obviously jQuery UI 1.10.3 uses other z-indexes as jQuery UI 1.8.21

We should update jQuery and jQuery UI again.

I want to see if jQuery UI menus with submenus works better meanwhile with DMs desktop-style UI (in contrast to webpage-style), see #758.

Adapt Webclient to jQuery UI 1.11.4 (#507, #758).

With jQuery UI 1.11.4 we didn't manage to get scrollable menus with submenus layouted properly.
The submenu appears inside the main menu's container and a vertical scrollbar appears. The submenu is only visible after scrolling to the right.
Fiddling with overflow-x and overflow-y doesn't help. The intended x=visible/y=auto combination is not supported by browsers. See W3C spec below.

With older jQuery UI 1.10.4 we got it working!
The solution is to set the menu's CSS "position" to "static" (and possibly position the menu by the jQuery UI "position" option then). All other position values ("absolute", "relative", "fixed") are not working. CSS "overflow" can just be "auto" then.
With jQuery UI 1.11.4 the "position=static" solution do not work.
So, scrollable menus with submenus are possible with jQuery UI 1.10.4 but not with newer jQuery UI 1.11.4.
All this is true pain!!

W3C spec says:

The computed values of "overflow-x" and "overflow-y" are the same as their specified values, except that some combinations with "visible" are not possible: if one is specified as "visible" and the other is "scroll" or "auto", then "visible" is set to "auto". The computed value of "overflow" is equal to the computed value of "overflow-x" if "overflow-y" is the same; otherwise it is the pair of computed values of "overflow-x" and "overflow-y".
