Prevent handle used for LOG from being inherited by subprocesses

I recently encountered a problem with this because Windows doesn't allow
files to be deleted when there's open handles to them.

Other files opened by leveldb are not affected because by and large they
are using CreateFileA, which does not allow inheritance when
lpSecurityAttributes is null (ref:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/fileapi/nf-fileapi-createfilea)

However, fopen() _does_ allow inheritance, and it needs to be expressly
disabled.
