I don't think so. The pg_restore code is not written to be a library.
(Some have proposed making it into one, but there's a lot of work needed
to make that happen.) Even if it were designed as a library, I don't
think it would be the library's job to close the input file --- what
if the surrounding app passes it stdin, for instance?
