    This code makes me wonder... How many output streams are open at any one 
time? Drill is a highly concurrent system: we could have 1000s of fragments. If 
each has, say, a hash agg with 16 partitions, do we run the risk of 16,000 open 
file handles? Or, is the file handle opened only when needed for reading or 
writing?
    
    In general, as we add more spilling, we may need a global file handle cache 
that controls the number of open files. The same issue arises in the sort merge 
phase: all spill files maintain an open file handle; we might exceed some limit.
    
    For this PR, consider how long the file handle is open. Perhaps we need to 
file a JIRA about managing the total number of open files.
