When called on a closed object, readinto() segfaults on account
of a write to a freed buffer:

==220553== Process terminating with default action of signal 11 (SIGSEGV): dumping core
==220553==  Access not within mapped region at address 0x2A
==220553==    at 0x48408A0: memmove (vg_replace_strmem.c:1272)
==220553==    by 0x58DB0C: _buffered_readinto_generic (bufferedio.c:972)
==220553==    by 0x58DCBA: _io__Buffered_readinto_impl (bufferedio.c:1053)
==220553==    by 0x58DCBA: _io__Buffered_readinto (bufferedio.c.h:253)

Reproducer:

reader = open ("/dev/zero", "rb")
_void  = reader.read (42)
reader.close ()
reader.readinto (bytearray (42)) ### BANG!

The problem exists since 2012 when commit dc46945 added code
to free the read buffer on close().
