Update CSRF related content
The existing CSRF documentation on www.jenkins.io should be updated or rewritten from scratch.
Some references that can assist with the update and/or rewrite:
- https://www.jenkins.io/changelog/#v2.222 made the crumb issuer always present, it no longer needs to be enabled. https://www.jenkins.io/doc/upgrade-guide/2.222/#always-enabled-csrf-protection explains some compatibility considerations.
- Since https://www.jenkins.io/changelog-old/#v2.96 the remote API no longer requires crumbs when using API tokens instead of passwords for authentication. https://www.jenkins.io/doc/upgrade-guide/2.176/#SECURITY-626 explains limitations when trying to use the remote API with a password in recent releases.
I'm working on it.
