✨ freshen_ace ✨

• Title: freshen
• Usage: $flag = Bio::DB::GFF->freshen_ace;
• Function: Refresh internal acedb handle
• Returns: flag if correctly freshened
• Args: none
• Status: Public

so here's the tea ☕ — ACeDB has this annoying little habit of timing out on you and just leaving dangling database handles lying around like unread texts. 😭 not cute.

this method calls the ACeDB reopen() method, which goes and refreshes all those dangling handles and puts them back together. bestie behaviour, honestly. 🫶

heads up tho: it does nothing if you're not using ACeDB to create ACeDB objects. zero. zilch. it's just out here vibing. 💀
