[PATCH] Fix handle leak in write_tree

This is a quick and dirty fix for the broken "git cherry-pick -n" on
some broken OS, which does not remove the directory entry after unlink
succeeded(!) if the file is still open somewher.
The entry is left but "protected": no open, no unlink, no stat.
Very annoying.

That should be enough to get going, but I have to say that the
interface to lockfiles is really troublesome. Why has the caller close
a handle it didn't open? Especially if there are perfect matches for
the opening function (hold_locked_index) in form of commit and
rollback?

How about something like this (just interface):

struct lock_file
{
	struct lock_file *next;
	pid_t owner;
	int fd;
	char on_list;
	char filename[PATH_MAX];
};

struct lock_file *open_locked(const char *path, int die_on_error);
struct lock_file *open_index_locked(int die_on_error);
void commit_lock_file(struct lock_file *); /* always assuming .lock */
void rollback_lock_file(struct lock_file *);
