Do we still support cu80 in 1.4 release?

Do we still support cu80 in 1.4 release?

There were issues when I tried to make the packages for cu80.
I was following the steps given here :

If I recall correctly, you need an earlier version of visual studio to build cu80. Have you tried that?

Yes. I tried with VS 2015 (not 2017). Still did not work.

@ankkhedia Since you have built cu80 for MXNET R 1.3, would you please help @piyushghai to build cu80? It is helpful for us to go through and fix the configuration, so that we can have a smooth pipeline for the R releases in the future.

@piyushghai did you get a chance to speak to Ankit about the windows build. I recollect you were working with him on the 1.4 release build.

@hetong007 unfortunately, I tried building it for cu80 using VS2015 but was not able to get it working for 1.3

If 1.4 doesn't come with cu80 binary, don't we want to remove cu80 in the doc?

@piyushghai thanks for the patch. This PR needs a rebase to the latest master branch. Would you mind?
