Update List Records

Records can be updated using write(), it takes a list of records to update and a mapping of updated fields to values similar to create().

Multiple records can be updated simultaneously, but they will all get the same values for the fields being set. It is not currently possible to perform computed updates (where the value is set depending on an existing value of a record).
