11/// `close(raw_fd)`—Closes a `RawFd` directly.
12///
13/// Most users won't need to use this, as `OwnedFd` automatically closes its
14/// file descriptor on `Drop`.
15///
16/// This function does not return a `Result`, as it is the [responsibility] of
17/// filesystem designers to not return errors from `close`. Users who chose to
18/// use NFS or similar filesystems should take care to monitor for problems
19/// externally.
