RFR: 8222532: (zipfs) Performance regression when writing ZipFileSystem entries in parallel

[Xueming Shen]

Alan, Claes,

If my memory was correct, ExChannelClose was not being used even in 
previous implementation.

Actually it should never have been used in any of the released JDK. I 
might have been missing some discussions ... so I might be wrong here. 
But the original reason of having a exchannelcloser was

that I was implementing the sync() the way that it would be invoked 
during its lifetime. Means you

can actually fresh the in-memory entries back to underlying zipfile to 
reduce memory pressure ...

because the fs is not really being closed in this situation, we can't 
just close those streams. Have to

keep them alive till they get closed by the caller. But then the plan 
was changed and the sync() is

being invoked only in its close(). In this situation, we should simply 
close those pending streams.

The filesystem is getting closed, any inputstream open on its entry 
should be closed as well. No

need for this closer any more in current sync() use scenario.
