Callers of start_command() can set the members .in and .out of struct
child_process to a value > 0 to specify that this descriptor is used as
the stdin or stdout of the child process.
Previously, if start_command() was successful, this descriptor was closed
upon return. Here we now make sure that the descriptor is also closed in
case of failures. All callers are updated not to close the file descriptor
themselves after start_command() was called.
Note that earlier run_gpg_verify() of git-verify-tag set .out = 1, which
worked because start_command() treated this as a special case, but now
this is incorrect because it closes the descriptor. The intent here is to
inherit stdout to the child, which is achieved by .out = 0.

And here it is.
The other issues you raised -- ->out sometimes compared > 0, sometimes > 1,
and treated different from ->in -- I addressed, too, by adjusting all uses
that were inconsitent. Note that there is still one ->out > 0, but that is
because we don't have set up need_out at this time, and I also left the
cmd->out > 1 in the child process alone.
Note also the amended commit message that describes the change in
builtin-verify-tag.c.
