Remove unnecessary query from close_issue method [RUN ALL RSPEC] [RUN AS-IF-FOSS]

Adam Cohen requested to merge 4794-optimise-close-issue-method into master

What does this MR do?

The current code executes the following two DB operations when closing an issue:

  1. sets the closed_at value for the issue to the current time
  2. sets the closed_by_id value for the issue to the current user

This MR is an optimisation which reduces the number of queries from 2 to 1 by combining both of the above updates into a single DB query

What are the relevant issue numbers?
