Add client.close() in httpclient examples. (#20118)
Without this, the httpclient examples are essentially setting you up for failure. I was bitten by this when my app became unable to open any more sockets.

I'm not entirely sure how long this will relevant, as I hope destructors will be added to an upcoming version of the stdlib. But figured it was worth submitting anyways!
