Description

Various components in Streams have close methods but do not implement AutoCloseable. This means that they can't be used in try-with-resources blocks.

Remedying that would simplify our tests and make life easier for users as well.

KafkaStreams itself is a notable example of this, but we can take the opportunity to look for other components that make sense as AutoCloseable as well.
