Comment (by valendesigns):

 The first patch seems to work better when you deactivate the plugin and
 there's an update available. The second patch got confused and reverted
 back to an empty table, while the first one remained persistent until
 `_site_transient_update_plugins` was rebuilt. The reason is now obvious.
 The plugin can no longer filter the response since it's deactivated and
 update information still exists in the database so WP thinks theres
 something to update.

 Possibly some variation of the two techniques combined could work more
 consistently. In either case, I need more plugins to test with. I'll check
 back for responses tomorrow morning and hopefully we'll get this sorted.
