[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Use $.ajax instead of iframe to make remote control requests (PR #3760)

[Anton Khorev]

The most likely reason is this one described [here](https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help/RemoteControlCommands#version):
"For older browsers not implementing [​Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-Origin_Resource_Sharing)...". Basically for compatibility with really old browsers that weren't as old in 2010 when this code was written.

Changing `src` on elements is a way of making a GET request without caring whether you have the permissions to read its response when you don't care about the response. JOSM just sends back "OK" on success.
