# Reloads the record from the database.
#
# This method finds the record by its primary key (which could be assigned
# manually) and modifies the receiver in-place:
#
# account = Account.new
# # => #<Account id: nil, email: nil>
# account.id = 1
# account.reload
# # Account Load (1.2ms) SELECT "accounts".* FROM "accounts" WHERE "accounts"."id" = $1 LIMIT 1 [["id", 1]]
# # => #<Account id: 1, email: 'account@example.com'>
#
# Attributes are reloaded from the database, and caches busted, in
# particular the associations cache and the QueryCache.
#
# If the record no longer exists in the database ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound
# is raised. Otherwise, in addition to the in-place modification the method
# returns +self+ for convenience.
#
# The optional <tt>:lock</tt> flag option allows you to lock the reloaded record:
#
# reload(lock: true) # reload with pessimistic locking
#
# Reloading is commonly used in test suites to test something is actually
# written to the database, or when some action modifies the corresponding
# row in the database but not the object in memory:
#
# assert account.deposit!(25)
# assert_equal 25, account.credit # check it is updated in memory
# assert_equal 25, account.reload.credit # check it is also persisted
#
# Another common use case is optimistic locking handling:
#
# def with_optimistic_retry
# begin
# yield
# rescue ActiveRecord::StaleObjectError
# begin
# # Reload lock_version in particular.
# reload
# rescue ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound
# # If the record is gone there is nothing to do.
