start-stop-daemon, supervise-daemon: use closefrom()/close_range()
On systems with a very large RLIMIT_NOFILE, calling close() in a loop from 3 to getdtablesize() effects an enormous number of system calls. There are better alternatives. Both BSD and Linux have the closefrom() system call that closes all file descriptors with indices not less than a specified minimum. Have start-stop-daemon call closefrom() on systems where it's implemented, falling back to the old loop elsewhere. Likewise, calling fcntl(i, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) in a loop from 3 to getdtablesize() raises a similar performance concern. Linux 5.11 and onward has a close_range() system call with a CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC flag that sets the FD_CLOEXEC flag on all file descriptors in a specified range. Have supervise-daemon utilize this feature on systems where it's implemented, falling back to the old loop elsewhere.
