It is mildly annoying that `refresh_from_db` returns None instead of
`self`. In some scenarios (especially involving tests) it would be quite
nice to be able to do:
`assert model.refresh_from_db().status == SomeEnum.SomeStatus`
With lists of models it's also nice to be able to do:
`assert all(model.refresh_from_db().status == Something for model in
list_of_models)`
Currently because the `refresh_from_db` returns None you cannot do this.
