Description

Sometimes it gets stuck, see Automattic/jetpack#18414

Another way to clear the transients is to deactivate/reactivate the plugin, but it would be nice to have some way to trigger this from the UI

Research direction

Start by locating the Beta Plugin UI and its autoupdate/transient handling. Confirm how the existing deactivate/reactivate path clears the stuck state, then verify that the new UI action can trigger the same force-fetch behavior and that the autoupdate version refreshes.
