[api-minor] Update the minimum supported browsers/environments

Browse Source 
*Please note:* The dates below are still a little ways off, however that obviously won't affect the existing PDF.js releases. Hence I think that we can make these changes now, since by the time of the *next* official PDF.js release they'll likely match up pretty well.[1]

While we "support" some (by now) fairly old browsers, that essentially means that the library (and viewer) will load and that the basic functionality will work as intended.[2]
However, in older browsers, some functionality may not be available and generally we'll ask users to update to a modern browser when bugs (specific to old browsers) are reported.[3]

Since we've previously settled on only supporting browsers/environments that are approximately *three years old*, this patch updates the minimum supported browsers/environments as follows:
 - Chrome 76, which was released on 2019-07-30; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Chrome_version_history
 - Firefox ESR (as before); see https://wiki.mozilla.org/Release_Management/Calendar
 - Safari 13, which was released on 2019-09-19; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safari_version_history#Safari_13
 - Node.js 14, which was release on 2020-04-21 (all older versions have reached EOL); see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node.js#Releases

[1] Given that the releases usually happen every two to three months.

[2] Assuming that a `legacy/`-build is being used, of course.

[3] In general it's never a good idea to use old/outdated browsers, since those may contain *known* security vulnerabilities.
