The actual running code is:
https://github.com/jquery/jquery/blob/master/src/ajax/script.js
(it adds a script tag to the end of the head of the page, or to the
document if the head cannot be found)
JSONP is a special case of script (you can do a script request as well
with jquery, but I don't know what the documentation says about it
anymore; script is a simple matter of adding a new script tag to the page).
