lvmcache: update cached info properly when moving from VG to orphan while lvmetad is used

When lvmetad is used and lvmcache update function (lvmcache_update_vgname_and_id)
was called to update existing lvmcache records, a condition was met
which made to retun from the update function immediately, effectively
making it NOOP.

It seems there's no reason for such condition and lvmcache should be
update appropriately even when lvmetad used as lvmcache may be reused,
most notably in lvm shell.

It's possible this is a remnant of the lvmetad development code which
didn't get removed for some reason and the bug didn't get spotted
because lvm shell is not used often (the condition dates back to 2012
or so).

Example, lvmetad and lvm shell used:

lvm> pvs
  PV         VG   Fmt  Attr PSize   PFree
  /dev/sda   vg   lvm2 a--  124.00m 124.00m

Before this patch:
==================
lvm> vgremove vg
  Volume group "vg" successfully removed

lvm> pvs

With this patch applied:
========================

lvm> vgremove vg
  Volume group "vg" successfully removed

lvm> pvs
  PV         VG   Fmt  Attr PSize   PFree
  /dev/sda        lvm2 ---  128.00m 128.00m
