Component:  Networks and Sites  |    Version:  5.1.1

 + Navigate to `/wp-admin/network/site-info.php?id=XXX` where XXX is a
 valid Site ID.
  + Checkmark: Spam
  + Click: Save Changes

 Expected: "Last Updated" changed to current time.
 Actual: "Last Updated" not changed.

 This is in contrast to `/wp-admin/network/sites.php` -> Bulk action ->
 Mark as Spam.
 Doing it bulk updates the Last Updated field to current time.

 In fact, behaviour is broken since 5.1.0


 `update_blog_details` function used to do:

 {{{
         $details = array_merge($current_details, $details);
         $details['last_updated'] = current_time('mysql', true);
 }}}

 /ms-blogs.php#L297

 ---

 This is a problem because we use "Last Updated" field to purge spam. It
 gives users X days from the "Last Updated" value to dispute the spam.
