   or
   
       MINOR: [${COMPONENT}] ${SUMMARY}

   ### Rationale for this change
   
   See #40630
   
   <!--
    Why are you proposing this change? If this is already explained clearly in 
the issue then this section is not needed.
    Explaining clearly why changes are proposed helps reviewers understand your 
changes and offer better suggestions for fixes.  
   -->
   
   ### What changes are included in this PR?
   
   1. Added `FlushWithFooter` method to *file.Writer
   2. To support `FlushWithFooter`, refactored `Close` in a way that changes 
the order of operations in two ways:
      a. closure of open row group writers is now done after using `defer` to 
ensure closure of the sink, instead of before
      b. wiping out of encryption keys is now done by the same deferred 
function, ensuring that it happens even upon error
   
   <!--
   There is no need to duplicate the description in the issue here but it is 
sometimes worth providing a summary of the individual changes in this PR.
   -->
   
   ### Are these changes tested?
   
   `file_writer_test.go` has been extended to cover `FlushWithFooter` in a 
manner equivalent to the existing coverage.
   
   <!--
   We typically require tests for all PRs in order to:
   1. Prevent the code from being accidentally broken by subsequent changes
   2. Serve as another way to document the expected behavior of the code
   
   If tests are not included in your PR, please explain why (for example, are 
they covered by existing tests)?
   -->
   
   ### Are there any user-facing changes?
   
   Only the addition of a new public method as described above.  No breaking 
changes to any existing public interfaces, unless the two minor 
order-of-operation changes described above are somehow a problem.
   
   <!--
   If there are user-facing changes then we may require documentation to be 
updated before approving the PR.
   -->
   
   <!--
   If there are any breaking changes to public APIs, please uncomment the line 
below and explain which changes are breaking.
   -->
   <!-- **This PR includes breaking changes to public APIs.** -->
   
   <!--
   Please uncomment the line below (and provide explanation) if the changes fix 
either (a) a security vulnerability, (b) a bug that caused incorrect or invalid 
data to be produced, or (c) a bug that causes a crash (even when the API 
contract is upheld). We use this to highlight fixes to issues that may affect 
users without their knowledge. For this reason, fixing bugs that cause errors 
don't count, since those are usually obvious.
   -->
   <!-- **This PR contains a "Critical Fix".** -->
   
   I'm not sure it's a critical fix, but one of the minor changes described 
above may reduce the likelihood that an attack could inject an error (e.g., an 
I/O error) to prevent an encryption key from being wiped from memory.
