Entity menu link are not being updated when aliases change

Problem/Motivation

Menu items to specific pieces of content are generated using the node alias.
When cache is enabled and alias is updated, the menu cache is not being invalidated, leading to broken links.

Steps to reproduce

  • Install a Drupal Standard site
  • Enable Drupal cache in /admin/config/development/performance and set it to 1 day
  • Create a basic page and set its alias to /foo
  • Create a new Menu Link in Main Navigation menu pointing to the node created using the autocomplete title. This is to force to store the URI in the database in format entity:node/XX instead of internal:/node/XX
  • Load homepage and confirm that menu link is added and points to /foo
  • Go to Url aliases page (/admin/config/search/path) and modify the node alias to /bar. This is to avoid invalidating node specific cache tags
  • Load homepage and confirm that menu cache has not been invalidated and link points to the previous alias, hence it is a broken link

    MR created.

    There is an, apparently, unrelated failing test. Will relaunch the test suite later.

    But issue summary appear to be incomplete. Believe proposed solution should be updated.
