refreshing namespaces breaks *data-readers*

data-readers.md

If you call clojure.tools.namespace.repl/refresh before requiring any namespaces referenced in data_readers.clj, then *data-readers* gets messed up somehow. The readers you define in data_readers.clj won't work even if you require their namespaces. For example:

$ find -type f
./src/foo/core.clj
./src/data_readers.clj
./src/user.clj
./deps.edn
$ for f in $(find -type f); do echo $f:; cat $f; echo; done
./src/foo/core.clj:
(ns foo.core)

(defn foo-reader [x]
  (Long/parseLong x))

./src/data_readers.clj:
{foo/bar foo.core/foo-reader}

./src/user.clj:
(ns user
  (:require [clojure.tools.namespace.repl :refer [refresh]]))

(defn good []
  (require 'foo.core)
  (read-string "#foo/bar \"123\"") ; works
  (refresh)
  (read-string "#foo/bar \"123\"")) ; still works

(defn bad []
  (refresh)
  (require 'foo.core)
  (read-string "#foo/bar \"123\"")) ; doesn't work

./deps.edn:
{:deps {org.clojure/tools.namespace {:mvn/version "0.2.11"}}}

$ clj -e "(good)"
:reloading (user foo.core)
123
$ clj -e "(bad)"
:reloading (user foo.core)

I'm not sure why this happens, but you can fix it by requiring any namespaces in data_readers.clj from your user.clj file (or whatever your repl entrypoint is). As long as you require them before the first call to refresh, they'll work.
