feat(typescript-estree): expose a wrapper cache clearing function for advanced usecases

[bradzacher]

PR Checklist

• Addresses an existing open issue: fixes Bug: repeated lints in the same process run out of memory #6462

Overview

Previously we exposed two separate functions and there were a few caches that weren't covered.

This PR exposes a single cache clear function that wraps up all our cache clearers for easy nuking.
