Description of the Change

String.prototype.substr() is deprecated so we replace it with String.prototype.slice() which works similarily but isn't deprecated.
.substr() probably isn't going away anytime soon but the change is trivial so it doesn't hurt to do it.

Alternate Designs

It would also be possible to use substring() instead of slice()

Why should this be in core?

Best to not use deprecated functions

Benefits

No more deprecated functions

Possible Drawbacks

None

Applicable issues

None so far
