> Dealing with Closeable resources inside a processElement call is easy: simply
> use try-with-resources.
> However, bundle- or DoFn-scoped resources, such as long-lived database
> connections, are less convenient to deal with: you have to open them in
> startBundle and conditionally close in finishBundle (likewise
> setup/teardown), taking special care if there's multiple resources to close
> all of them.
> Perhaps we should provide something like Guava's Closer to DoFn's
> https://github.com/google/guava/wiki/ClosingResourcesExplained. Ideally, the
> user would need to only write a startBundle() or setup() method, but not
> write finishBundle() or teardown() - resources would be closed automatically.
