UniqueFd fd(std::move(num));
UniqueFD fd(3);
fd.reset(std::move(num));
fd.reset(3);

should all compile, while

UniqueFd fd(num);
fd.reset(num);

should result in a compilation error.

I need to keep the fd_ value valid, as I use it on the next line. When
fd4 gets out of scope, the destructor will close the file descriptor,
and isValid(fd_) should then fail. Without numFd = fd_, fd_ will then
become -1, which defeats the point of the test.
