read-cache: drop explicit `CLOSE_LOCK`-flag

`write_locked_index()` takes two flags: `COMMIT_LOCK` and `CLOSE_LOCK`.
At most one is allowed. But it is also possible to use no flag, i.e.,
`0`. But when `write_locked_index()` calls `do_write_index()`, the
temporary file, a.k.a. the lockfile, will be closed. So passing `0` is
effectively the same as `CLOSE_LOCK`, which seems like a bug.

We might feel tempted to restructure the code in order to close the file
later, or conditionally. It also feels a bit unfortunate that we simply
"happen" to close the lock by way of an implementation detail of
lockfiles. But note that we need to close the temporary file before
`stat`-ing it, at least on Windows. See 9f41c7a6b (read-cache: close
index.lock in do_write_index, 2017-04-26).

Drop `CLOSE_LOCK` and make it explicit that `write_locked_index()`
always closes the lock. Whether it is also committed is governed by the
remaining flag, `COMMIT_LOCK`.

This means we neither have nor suggest that we have a mode to write the
index and leave the file open. Whatever extra contents we might
eventually want to write, we should probably write it from within
`write_locked_index()` itself anyway.
