   * If {@code swallowIOException} is true then we never throw

   *

   * boolean threw = true;
   * try {
   *   // Some code which does something with the Stream. May throw a
   *   // Throwable.
   *   threw = false; // No throwable thrown.
   * } finally {
   *   // Close the stream.
   *   // If an exception occurs, only rethrow it if (threw==false).
   *   Closeables.close(stream, threw);
   * }
   * 
   *
   * @param closeable the {@code Closeable} object to be closed, or null,
   *     in which case this method does nothing
   * @param swallowIOException if true, don't propagate IO exceptions
   *     thrown by the {@code close} methods
   * @throws IOException if {@code swallowIOException} is false and
   *     {@code close} throws an {@code IOException}.
