    .gdb_index writer: close the file before unlinking it
    
    We should close the file before unlinking because on MS-Windows one
    cannot delete a file that is still open.
    
    I considered making 'gdb::unlinker::unlinker(const char *)'
    'noexcept(true)' and then adding
      static_assert (noexcept (gdb::unlinker (filename.c_str ())), "");
    
    but that doesn't really work because gdb::unlinker has a gdb_assert,
    which can throw a QUIT if/when the assertion fails.  'noexcept(true)'
    would cause GDB to abruptly terminate if/when the assertion fails.
