 For a complete abstraction of the database access, the wpdb class needs a
 close() function.
 A sample situation is a file-serving script, that runs for a long time
 reading a big file and pumping the bytes to the browser. Here a database
 connection is an unneeded resource and should be closed as soon as the IO
 pump starts.
