Clicking on the Update link in the Marketplace instead of in the WordPress plugins admin can fail, if the user has not visited the WordPress plugins admin.

Steps to reproduce:

Use Matomo 4.15.3 locally.
Download 4.x version of a Matomo plugin.
Switch to Matomo 5.x locally.
Go directly to the Matomo marketplace (do not visit the WordPress plugins admin page).
Try to update the Matomo plugin to the 5.x version.
WordPress will report the plugin is at the latest version without updating.

wp_update_plugins() probably needs to be called when loading the marketplace.
