   A simpler method of causing a join-slot to be requeried is to set it to
   unbound, then request it again.  This function has efficiency gains where
   join-objects are shared among the `objects` (querying all join-objects,
   then attaching them appropriately to each of the `objects`)

   SLOTS can be one of:

    * :immediate (DEFAULT) - refresh join slots created with :retrieval :immediate
    * :deferred - refresh join slots created with :retrieval :deferred
    * :all,t - refresh all join slots regardless of :retrieval
    * list of symbols - which explicit slots to refresh
    * a single symobl - what slot to refresh

   CLASS-NAME is used to specify the View Class of all instance in OBJECTS and
   default to nil which means that the class of the first instance in OBJECTS
   is used.

   FORCE-P is t by default which means that all join slots are updated whereas
   a value of nil means that only unbound join slots are updated.

   MAX-LEN defaults to *DEFAULT-UPDATE-OBJECTS-MAX-LEN* When non-nil this is
   essentially a batch size for the max number of objects to query from the
   database at a time.  If we need more than max-len we loop till we have all

  "Executes a query on DATABASE, which has a default value of
*DEFAULT-DATABASE*, specified by the SQL expressions supplied
using the remaining arguments in SELECT-ALL-ARGS. The SELECT
argument can be used to generate queries in both functional and
object oriented contexts.

In the functional case, the required arguments specify the
columns selected by the query and may be symbolic SQL expressions
or strings representing attribute identifiers. Type modified
identifiers indicate that the values selected from the specified
column are converted to the specified lisp type. The keyword
arguments ALL, DISTINCT, FROM, GROUP-by, HAVING, ORDER-BY,
SET-OPERATION and WHERE are used to specify, using the symbolic
SQL syntax, the corresponding components of the SQL query
generated by the call to SELECT. RESULT-TYPES is a list of
symbols which specifies the lisp type for each field returned by
the query. If RESULT-TYPES is nil all results are returned as
strings whereas the default value of :auto means that the lisp
types are automatically computed for each field. FIELD-NAMES is t
by default which means that the second value returned is a list
of strings representing the columns selected by the query. If
FIELD-NAMES is nil, the list of column names is not returned as a
second value.

In the object oriented case, the required arguments to SELECT are
symbols denoting View Classes which specify the database tables
to query. In this case, SELECT returns a list of View Class
instances whose slots are set from the attribute values of the
records in the specified table. Slot-value is a legal operator
which can be employed as part of the symbolic SQL syntax used in
the WHERE keyword argument to SELECT. REFRESH is nil by default
which means that the View Class instances returned are retrieved
from a cache if an equivalent call to SELECT has previously been
issued. If REFRESH is true, the View Class instances returned are
updated as necessary from the database and the generic function
INSTANCE-REFRESHED is called to perform any necessary operations
on the updated instances.

In both object oriented and functional contexts, FLATP has a
default value of nil which means that the results are returned as
a list of lists. If FLATP is t and only one result is returned
for each record selected in the query, the results are returned
as elements of a list."
