These commands use the term 'update'. But package-menu-mark-upgrades, which has been in package.el for years, uses the term 'upgrade' in its name and its docstring ("all upgradable packages", etc). There are a few auxiliary functions which also use that term, but this is the public-facing one.
Given this, I think we should rename the functions. If that means adding obsolete aliases to be polite, that's ok too. (Personally, I don't think it's necessary, since users tracking the development builds should expect some minor breakage, but it doesn't hurt to have aliases.)
