    We don't need to worry about a memory leak when the task exits with success 
or failure since there is a cleanup method registered with the task context, 
e.g.
    
    ```
    // Add a task completion callback (called in both success case and failure 
case) to cleanup.
    context.addTaskCompletionListener(_ => cleanup())
    ```
    
    However, you're correct that there would be a memory (and file handle) 
leak, if the `InputStream` isn't closed in the `ShuffleReader`. This PR 
prevents that since 
`serializerInstance.deserializeStream(wrappedStream).asKeyValueIterator` 
returns a `NextIterator` which closes the stream when the last record is read.
    
    To be more defensive and potentially simplify the code, it might make sense 
to have a call to `ShuffleBlockFetcherIterator.next()` to not just return the 
next `InputStream` but also `close()` the last one. This would prevent callers 
from having more than one `InputStream` open at a time but I don't think we 
want that anyway?
