fix fclose of permanent (stdin/out/err) streams
this fixes a bug reported by Nuno Gonçalves. previously, calling fclose on stdin or stdout resulted in deadlock at exit time, since __stdio_exit attempts to lock these streams to flush/seek them, and has no easy way of knowing that they were closed. conceptually, leaving a FILE stream locked on fclose is valid since, in the abstract machine, it ceases to exist. but to satisfy the implementation-internal assumption in __stdio_exit that it can access these streams unconditionally, we need to unlock them. it's also necessary that fclose leaves permanent streams in a state where __stdio_exit will not attempt any further operations on them. fortunately, the call to fflush already yields this property.
