JavaScript breaks on IE <= 8

    Description

      The M.util.js_complete tests introduced by MDL-41030 use Array.indexOf.
      Unfortunately IE8 and below do not support indexOf.

      Although we don't support IE8, we shouldn't break this badly.

      Possible solutions include:

      1. return early if indexOf does not exit on the Array;
      2. switch to YUI's Array functions; and
      3. monkey patch indexOf onto the Array.

      Since we don't support IE8, nor do we test it, I think we should just exit if the indexOf function doesn't exist.
