FileUtils.close

This wraps the close() call; in case of error, errno will be preserved, but the error will also be stored as a GError in error.

Besides using GError, there is another major reason to prefer this function over the call provided by the system; on Unix, it will attempt to correctly handle EINTR, which has platform-specific semantics.
