I chatted with Infra about this.

This is the summary of what Infra said:

1) use the "this closes #123" commit message, which will only work if you actually merge something properly
2) file a ticket with us, we can close PRs for you
3) move to gitbox and you can get write-access to github and thus close tickets yourself

Apache Infra can close them.  The author of the pull request can close their own requests.  With the proper "This closes #nnn" text in a commit message, they can be closed automatically by the connections that have been established between github and Apache git.

Infra has told me that all projects using the git-wip host will be migrated to gitbox at some point in the future, which means it will be possible to write to the repo with either apache or github credentials, as long as they have been given the right karma. Once we move to gitbox, which we can request from Infra before the future forced migration, we will be able to close pull requests ourselves.  They would prefer that we opt to complete the migration in advance.

Thanks,
Shawn
