[Bug 1642812] [NEW] USB devices are not closed when error occurs

[Robert Liu]

Public bug reported:

In fwupd, a few of USB devices are not closed when there are some
failures of operations. This issue will cause fwupd has some orphan USB
nodes inside during fwupd is running. A orphan USB node might introduce
memory leak and block some runtime power features as well.

I proposed a upstream PR, and also put the link here.
