Description
Hi.
Seems like wp_update_post() function not support meta fields update.
I found post meta update only in wp_insert_post() function https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/blob/6.0.2/src/wp-includes/post.php#L4498-L4502
Is there are some reasons to not include meta fields update in wp_update_post() function? Or this can be fixed in the future?

@borisolhor Thanx for the ticket and welcome to Trac!
If you look at https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/blob/6.0.2/src/wp-includes/post.php#L4775 you'll see that
wp_update_post()is basically just a small wrapper aroundwp_insert_post(). So, the$postarr['meta_input']values passed to it will be updated by the code you referenced withinwp_insert_post().
