With statement?

Good catch, couldn't use it above (not without introducing more complexity than
saving three lines of code is worth, anyway), but here I can. Had to violate the
80 column rule now since I don't want to change the naming, but I guess that's
the best option.

+      _convert_filter_list(combined_file, COMBINED_CONTENT_BLOCKER_PATH)
+    finally:
+      combined_file.close()
+  finally:
