19   * A {@code SafeCloseable} can be safely closed without risk of an exception being thrown.

21   * This interface extends {@link AutoCloseable} so instances can be used in try-with-resources clauses.
22   *
23   * @implNote Similar to {@link java.io.Closeable}, implementors should make their {@link #close()} idempotent.
24   * In other words, it should be safe to call {@link #close()} multiple times on the same instance.
25   * This is a restriction beyond what {@link AutoCloseable} provides.
