Closing a connection tries to close already closed cursors #497

Description

@betodealmeida

When closing a connection the library will call .close() on every cursor created for that connection, including closed ones. While the code works, it produces a lot of logs of error level, polluting the logs.

Environment details

  • OS type and version: Mac OS 10.15.7
  • Python version: Python 3.8.2
  • pip version: pip 20.3.3
  • google-cloud-bigquery version: 2.7.0

Steps to reproduce

  1. Close a cursor
  2. Close the connection
  3. Error log shows Exception closing connection <google.cloud.bigquery.dbapi.connection.Connection object at 0x...>

Code example

fromcontextlibimportclosing# using pybigquerywithclosing(engine.raw_connection()) asconn:
withclosing(conn.cursor()) ascursor:
cursor.execute(sql)
