https://github.com/apache/accumulo/pull/159
After discussing the issues with these changes with @keith-turner we
decided to narrow the scope of the close implementation to only be for User
Iterators. My attempt at trying to close iterators at the system level was
dangerous and unnecessary. There are already mechanisms in place for handling
resources at the lower levels.
