Purges don't update the links table (unless you do it from the api and add
an extra argument). They only clear the parser cache + varnish cache +file
cache of the immediate page. (So they don't trigger HTMLCacheUpdate jobs
for redirects either afaik)

Wouldn't a purge also create refreshlinks jobs?

I would like to include a warning in the installation documentation to
clear your job queue before the upgrade, but I don't know that much
about the job queue in MW or even if this is possible.
Are there any recommendations for what to tell users?
