Plugin authors: update your plugins for Adapt v3.x support

As I'm sure you'll have seen from earlier posts by me, we're moving the Adapt Framework on a major version - to v3.

This means that if you have authored a plugin for Adapt, you'll likely need to update it to reflect that it supports v3 as well; most should do as the 'breaking change' we're introducing in v3 is to drop support for IE8/9/10 and remove any related code e.g. v1 of JQuery, the ES5 'shim', any IE8/9/10-specific code/styles/hacks etc. - changes which areĀ  unlikely to impact any plugins.

The easiest way to update it is to do the same thing we did for all the core plugins - amend the 'framework' property in bower.json to state that the plugin is compatible with 'v2 or better', that way you won't have to make this amend again when we release v4.

You can see an example of this amend in this pull request.
