scanner: Fix for memleak due to unclosed file pointer
When including a file, it is opened by fopen() and therefore needs to be closed after scanning has finished using fclose(), otherwise valgrind will report a memleak. This patch changes struct input_descriptor to track the opened FILE pointer instead of the file descriptor so the pointer is available for closing in scanner_destroy(). While at it, change erec_print() to work on the open FILE pointer so it doesn't have to call fileno() in beforehand. And as a little bonus, use C99 initializer of the buffer to get rid of the call to memset(). Note that it is necessary to call erec_print_list() prior to destroying the scanner, otherwise it will start manipulating an already freed FILE pointer (and therefore crash the program).
