function updateObjMetadata(conn, obj, objid)
% an utility to update entries for various object metadata in the
% corresponding tables. differs from insertObjMetadataV1() by

% MUST BE KEPT IN SYNC WITH insertObjMetadata()

% conn   - Java database connection object
% obj    - object
% objid  - unique ID of the object in the database
