[issue11453] asyncore.file_wrapper should implement __del__ and call close there to prevent resource leaks and behave like socket.socket does.

I fixed the issue in Python 3.4 and 3.5, thanks for the report.

In Python 3.4+, it's safe to add a destructor (__del__ method): even if the object is part of a reference cycle, it will be destroyed. It's not the case in Python 2.7. I prefer to leave Python 2.7 unchanged to limit the risk of regression.
