clearing cache for _.memoize question

[hippich]

So I found I can clear cache by setting func.cache.data to empty object, but not sure if this is appropriate. What is general recommendation on this? Should new .cache property be created, or it is appropriate just clear .cache.data?

Looking through WeakMap documentation on mozilla website I found that WeakMap implements .clear() method. If I make a PR with similar modification to the API, will it be considered?

Clearing isn't enforced because devs can use a WeakMap which doesn't have clear and I wanted to keep our default interface small. If you'd like to clear caches I'd recommend using a Map (and its shim if needed) for the cache backing _.memoize.Cache = Map.
