Invalidates the cache for a site.

function submits a request to invalidate (clear) the site cache.
The function returns a Promise that resolves when the invalidation request is accepted (or rejected). Note that the

Note: This function only invalidates the cache for your site. To invalidate backend function caches and router caches, use the invalidateCache()
function in the wix-cache-backend
module.
You can prevent such issues by invalidating your site's cache following a data update.
