 {{{update_usermeta()}}} and {{{delete_usermeta()}}} are deprecated, but do
 not invalidate the user's user_meta cache.

 This can cause cache and even DB poisoning depending on how plugins using
 these functions work.

 Attached uses the same cache invalidation that the new
 {{{update_user_meta()}}} and {{{delete_user_meta()}}} use:

 {{{clean_user_cache( $user_id ); wp_cache_delete( $user_id, 'user_meta'
 );}}}
