/**
 * Functional helper-interface to allow for use of closeable resources that don't implement AutoCloseable in a try-with-resources statement.
 *
 * 
 * This interface can be used with any object instance that doesn't implement AutoCloseable, but does have a close or similar method that needs to be
 * called to free up resources. This functional interface is useable for any close method that doesn't throw any checked exceptions, for methods that
 * throw a more specific exception than Exception, please see @link{ThrowingAutoCloseable}.
 * 
 *
 *
 * Example:
 * 
 *     CloseableResource resource = ...
 *     try (ExceptionlessAutoCloseable eac = resource::close) {
 *         // Use resource
 *     }
 * 
 *
