This fixes a broken link by replacing it with the Wayback Machine
version. This is similar to the fix in #257 but note that the bug
trackers are different: the previous fix was for a link to an Internet
Explorer bug tracker, while this fix is for a link to an EdgeHTML bug
tracker (which apparently also accepted bug reports for IE). Presumably
Microsoft discontinued this bug tracker when Edge switched to Chromium
for its browser engine.

As of January 3rd, 2018, Microsoft Connect is no longer in service [1]
and as such IE bug tracker links don't work anymore. It doesn't seem
like the tracker was migrated anywhere; it was just shut down
(probably because they aren't fixing anything but the most critical
bugs).

Although its usefulness is limited because the bug wont be fixed, I
think the bug tracking page may still be good for people to see this
fact. I've updated the link to the latest archived version from the
Wayback Machine.
