[io] IOUtils shutdown
The IOUtils shutdownXxx methods seem oddly named to me, especially given
their usefulness.
IOUtils.close(stream)
would seem much more sensible (and shorter!)

DbUtils has this, but calls it closeQuietly(XXX).
The shutdown name had meant I'd not even noticed that IOUtils already had
a closeQuietly-like method :)
Unless anyone objects, I plan to change the name to match DbUtils.

I also don't like the shutdownXxxx method naming convention. But, I
think that close doesn't convey the 'added' functionality of these
convenience methods.
How about safeClose(XXX) instead?
