[PATCH] detect close failure on just-written file handles

[Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>]

I audited git for potential undetected write failures.
In the cases fixed below, the diagnostics I add mimic the diagnostics
used in surrounding code, even when that means not reporting
the precise strerror(errno) cause of the error.
