Don't recall why I wanted the delete from cache, but this patch removes
all update prior to 4.5.0.
Peopel who want inspiration from old updates still have plenty of them
in the file and can look into our cvs repos.

The attached patch removes the updates 80 through 109 from updates.inc
and adds a "delete from cache" statement after updating.

big, big, big -1 on removing the old updates.


Having these updates around makes life much easier for those upgrading
from older versions and provides quick code samples on how to populate
certain fields and tables for those migrating from other CMS'.  I know,
in particular, that the PHP code for the node_comment_statistics table
and the thread field of the comments table have been infinitely
valuable to me when navigating sites from other CMS'.


I like the idea of clearing the cache after each run of update.php. 
There is a specific issue for it [1] as well.
