Reedy: What exactly to grep for to identify such extensions and make maintainers aware? What does "old" mean?

For jQuery itself, it would be any version of jQuery of a lower version number than MediaWiki bundles. Bundling newer should be ok (but that's a different discussion).
There's many cases where they include it themselves, but core already has it.
Same goes for jquery ui plugins, if core has a newer version, chances are the extension itself doesn't need it

Looks resolved.

Any individual repos that still have it can/should handle it as part of their own responsibility for maintenance. For one, because including a raw copy in any currently supported version of MediaWiki would result in a number of errors due to conflicts with the built-in copy.
