[FLINK-5325] Splitting user/system-facing API of CloseableRegistry Currently, the API of ``CloseableRegistry`` exposes the ``close`` method to all client code. This PR splits the API into a user-facing interface (allowing only for un/registration of ``Closeable`` and a system-facing part that also exposes the ``close method``. This prevents users from accidentally calling close, thus closing resources that other callers registered.
