[issue27086] Add closefd argument to os.listdir

[Irit Katriel]

I agree with Serhiy and David. The responsibility for closing the file is with whoever opened it, and adding an option in a function for it to also close the fd after doing what it was designed to do makes the API unnecessarily over-complicated.
