Comment:

 I think this is good. While there are technically return value changes,
 I'm not too concerned about the back compat.

 wp_clear_scheduled_hook() probably just needs to return true (it got
 cleared) or false, versus an array. It's also possible we change how that
 function works in the future, #25773 gave us some trouble.

 The wp_remote_post() call is non-blocking, so spawn_cron() should probably
 not have a return value, right? Thus wp_cron() shouldn't have a return
 value either. I know that was the original bug report — what about `true`?
 Is that sufficient?
