[issue10554] Context managerment support for subprocess.Popen

[Éric Araujo]

New submission from Éric Araujo <merwok at netwok.org>:

I propose that __enter__ and __exit__ be added to subprocess.Popen.  __enter__ returns self, __exit__ closes open file descriptors.

__exit__ could also do the same checks that __del__ does (and which I don’t entirely understand.

See also os.popen (os._wrap_close).
