Not showing newly updated/changed file on Pantheon - Cache issue

Problem/Motivation

Here's a common request from site editors:

"We uploaded this PDF to Drupal, now we have a new version. The new file needs to have the same URL as the old one so that any direct links to the file show the new version. Oh, and this is a legal document, so we _definitely_ can't have the old version hanging around."

This is incredibly awkward to do with just Drupal Core. So install https://www.drupal.org/project/file_replace → instead.

After replacing the file (either via Drupal Core, File Replace module, or any other technique), the Pantheon CDN will still show the old file.

Proposed resolution

Run pantheon_clear_edge_all() or pantheon_clear_edge_paths() on a file entity when it is updated.
