 When I try to update the sidebar on make/core with
 [https://make.wordpress.org/core/2018/03/07/updated-rest-api-team-meeting-
 time/ new meeting time for REST API team], changes are not saved.

 The same issue
 [https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C02QB8GMM/p1511394804000117 happened
 in November] and was resolved by clearing the cache:
 > sergey: it says "Saved" when clicking the Save button, but doesn't
 appear to actually save any changes...
 > dd32: duplicated that, The POST sends the right data,
 `wp_ajax_save_widget()` spits back the old data
 > dd32: Found the issue… The Cache had the old value, the database the new
 value, so update_option() wasn’t actually updating the cache since the
 database was already up to date. Cleared the cache and suddenly widget
 editing works again..
