remove unnecessary reference to googleapis.com to stop page load failing in China etc

[Jon007]

html5boilerplate.com. Version: 4.2.0
unnecessary script reference to googleapis.com causes boilerplate to fail (or load unbelievably slowly after timing out on the script) in China (500million internet users) and other countries where googleapis.com is blocked.
index.html contains:
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
since jquery is also included locally this line could be modified to:
<script src="js/vendor/jquery-1.9.1.min.js"></script>
to avoid issues due to non-availability of googleapis.com

HTML5Boilerplate is currently on v5.2.0.
v4.x is no longer maintained or updated.

True, but the reference to googleapis.com is alive and well so the issue is valid.

(When's the last time we talked about where we're loading jQuery from? Two years?)

I think that was a typo, I was using 5.2.0.
I have tested the alternative CDNs listed on https://jquery.com/download/ and these all seem to be accessible from China without any tricks needed eg:
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.1.4.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-2.1.4.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script>

I'm not really sure if h5bp should adapt to any form of censorship as a default, which if I understand correct is the case here? Perhaps it could be added to the docs? If else 👍 for code.jquery.com.
