Ensure that the file handle is closed if header validation fails in respondWithFile. This prevents ERR_INVALID_STATE errors where a FileHandle object is closed during garbage collection.

Summary
This PR fixes a
FileHandleleak inlib/internal/http2/core.jsthat causesERR_INVALID_STATEwhen garbage collection occurs.In
processRespondWithFD, ifbuildNgHeaderStringthrows (e.g., due to invalid headers), the code would catch the error and destroy the stream but fail to close the file handle (fd) if it owned it (self.ownsFd). This leaves the file handle open, eventually triggering the GC error.This patch adds a
tryClose(fd)call in the catch block and error handling path to ensure the handle is properly released.References
