Tools: hv: kvp: ensure kvp device fd is closed on exec

commit 26840437cbd6d3625ea6ab34e17cd34bb810c861 upstream.

KVP daemon does fork()/exec() (with popen()) so we need to close our fds
to avoid sharing them with child processes. The immediate implication of
not doing so I see is SELinux complaining about 'ip' trying to access
'/dev/vmbus/hv_kvp'.
