/**
 * Defines an interface for classes that can (or need to) be closed once they
 * are not used any longer; calling the {@code close} method releases resources
 * that the object holds.</p>
 *
 * <p>This signifies that the implementor will never throw checked exceptions when closing,
 * allowing for more fine grained exception handling at call sites handling this interface
 * generically.</p>
 *
 * <p>A common pattern for using an {@code UncheckedCloseable} resource:
 * <pre>   {@code
 *   // where <Foo extends UncheckedCloseable>
 *   UncheckedCloseable foo = new Foo();
 *   try {
 *      ...;
 *   } finally {
 *      foo.close();
