These tests, and their accompanying Wiki page, haven't received any real updates for many years and are sufficiently out of date to be effectively useless now.
Providing irrelevant compatibility information seems overall worse than not providing any information at all, and as suggested in the issue it'd probably be better to use https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js#online-demo for checking if a particular platform/browser is supported.

Thanks to version control, it's easy to restore these files should the need ever arise. However, re-introducing these tests would essentially require updating every single test-case and a commitment to keeping them up to date with future code changes.

Looks good to me. I have also removed the wiki page and the links to the page now.
