This is an interesting idea. I think it should be a dunder name:
__clearcache__() or __clear_cache__().
Between those two then I would go with __clearcache__(), but I was
talking about a naming scheme for a function in each module, not a new
built-in in case you thought I meant that.
Then I understood you correctly. Only now I saw that your words could
have been understood differently.
Opened https://bugs.python.org/issue36485 for implementing this idea.
