[release-branch.go1.22] cmd/internal/cov: close counter data files eagerly

When reading the counter data files from a given pod, close the
underlying *os.File immediately after each one is read, as opposed to
using a deferred close in the loop (which will close them all at the
end of the function). Doing things this way avoids running into "too
many open files" when processing large clumps of counter data files.

Fixes #68492.
Updates #68468.
