This patch series fixes several cases where file descriptors were not
properly closed on error paths. The changes affect helper programs and
a builtin command, and ensure that system resources are correctly
released before returning from the function.

Each fix is minimal and follows the existing style of the surrounding
code. These changes help improve the robustness of the code by avoiding
potential file descriptor leaks.

  t/helper/test-truncate: close file descriptor after truncation
  builtin/archive: close file descriptor on dup2() failure
  t/helper/test-delta: close fd if fstat() fails after open()
  t/helper/test-delta: close fd if fstat() fails after second open()

Fix a resource leak where the file descriptor was not closed after
truncating a file in t/helper/test-truncate.c.

In create_output_file(), the file descriptor returned by xopen()
was not closed if dup2() failed. This leads to a potential resource
leak. Ensure the file descriptor is closed regardless of whether
dup2() succeeds or fails.

If open() succeeds but fstat() fails, the file descriptor is not
closed, causing a resource leak. This patch adds a close(fd) call
in the failure path after fstat() to ensure proper resource cleanup.

When opening argv[3], if open() succeeds but fstat() fails,
the file descriptor is not closed, resulting in a resource leak.
This patch ensures that the descriptor is closed on failure.
