[FIX] Memory issues in LS5 #803

It seems like the memory issues are caused by LS5's particular setting that maps /tmp into RAM. You can consume up to 32GB in /tmp that are discounted from the overal RAM.

FMRIPREP was using /tmp in the resampling of all BOLD scans into T1 and MNI. For long runs and/or many runs, the 32GB limit was reached in fact reducing the total amount of memory for processes to only 32GB (the total in LS5 is 64GB).

In this PR some other optimizations are also done: make sure we always close file handlers and memory annotations have been revised to more sensible values.
