features/bitrot: fix fd leak in truncate (stub)
Backport of http://review.gluster.org/#/c/11077 The need to perform object versioning in the truncate() code path required an fd to reuse existing versioning infrastructure that's used by fd based operations (such as writev(), ftruncate(), etc..). This tempted the use of anonymous fd which was never ever unref()'d after use resulting in fd and/or memory leak depending on the code path taken. Versioning resulted in a dangling file descriptor left open in the filesystem effecting the signing process of a given object (no release() would be trigerred, hence no signing would be performed). On the other hand, cases where the object need not be versioned, the anonymous fd in still ref()'d resulting in memory leak (NOTE: there's no "dangling" file descriptor in this case).
