 meta cache, either directly or indirectly.

 There is a ticket for converting these functions to use metadata api, see
 #37181. It was committed in [54080] and then reverted in [54637]. I
 haven't had a chance loop back on that ticket.

 It is unclear to me that loading all network options in memory for every
 request would be a good thing for performance. Loading in all network
 transients ( if object cache is not enabled ), might result in megabytes
 of text or json, might have serious performance issues.
