[PATCH 09/11] pack-mtimes: avoid closing a bogus file descriptor

<pull.1264.git.1655336146.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

In 94cd775a6c52 (pack-mtimes: support reading .mtimes files, 2022-05-20), code was added to close the file descriptor corresponding to the mtimes file.

However, it is possible that opening that file failed, in which case we are closing a file descriptor with the value `-1`. Let's guard that `close()` call.

Reported by Coverity.
