jQuery will / be distributed using VisualStudio / ASP.NET MVC , although I would not call it part of the framework. I think you can freely use it and hope that it will be supported.
Please note that Microsoft has stated that it will use the main development line for jQuery, so the code itself will not differ from the one you can download from jQuery.com, with the possible exception of the built-in Intellisense.
