> There are a few of methods in {{DFSTestUtil}} that do not close the resource 
> safely, or elegantly. We can use the try-with-resource statement to address 
> this problem.
> Specially, as {{DFSTestUtil}} is popularly used in test, we need to preserve 
> any exceptions thrown during the processing of the resource while still 
> guaranteeing it's closed finally. Take for example,the current implementation 
> of {{DFSTestUtil#createFile()}} closes the FSDataOutputStream in the 
> {{finally}} block, and when closing if the internal 
> {{DFSOutputStream#close()}} throws any exception, which it often does, the 
> exception thrown during the processing will be lost. See this [test 
> failure|https://builds.apache.org/job/PreCommit-HADOOP-Build/9320/testReport/org.apache.hadoop.hdfs/TestAsyncDFSRename/testAggressiveConcurrentAsyncRenameWithOverwrite/],
>  and we have to guess what was the root cause.
> Using try-with-resource, we can close the resources safely, and the 
> exceptions thrown both in processing and closing will be available (closing 
> exception will be suppressed). Besides the try-with-resource, if a stream is 
> not necessary, don't create/close it.
