Docs is using old version of angular-bootstrap with click issues in Firefox #14024

Description

@nlwillia

The version of angular-bootstrap used by angularjs.org and the documentation site is unspecified, but clearly older than the current 1.1.2 release since nothing has been committed for two years now.

Why does it matter? Well, anyone using Firefox will have a bad time when trying to open header links in a new tab due to a click dispatch bug that wasn't fixed until angular-bootstrap 1.0.0. Who is really to blame here? Firefox is clearly doing something different than other browsers, but it creates a real usability issue which angular-bootstrap has finally moved to solve. However, Angular needs to update its ui-bootstrap version to pick up the change.

It's very frustrating to middle-click or right-click a link and not be able to open it in a new tab, and this has been a problem for Firefox users of the Angular site for years. Tracking the current ui-bootstrap could break other things, but it shouldn't be allowed to stagnate.
