+/**
+ * Write a cache entry that suppresses the update notification.
+ *
+ * After a CLI `update` command installs a new version, the currently running
+ * binary still reports the OLD version via getPackageJson(__dirname). If we
+ * merely clear the cache, the next command will fetch the latest from npm and
+ * compare it against the stale pkgVersion, producing a false-positive
+ * "Update available" message.
+ *
+ * By writing the current binary's version as `latestVersion`, the next
+ * checkForUpdates call sees latestVersion === pkgVersion and returns
+ * hasUpdate: false. Once the cache expires (24 h by default), a fresh check
+ * runs against the (by then correct) new binary version.
+ *
+ * @param toolName - Tool name used for appstash directory (e.g., 'pgpm')
+ * @param currentVersion - The version of the currently running binary
+ * @returns true if the cache was written successfully
