tramp "too many open files" [Re: bug#56606

The #56606 is archived and this may be unrelated and related to tramp,
but I wanted to note I encoutered something similar on recent master
(GNU Emacs 30.0.50 (build 2, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, cairo
version 1.16.0, Xaw3d scroll bars) of 2023-03-18) native compilation.

Running the image after it compiled, when trying to save a zip file
attachment in mew with y, I ran into the too many open files problem.

```
$ lsof -n|wc -l
59510
$ lsof -n |grep tramp|wc -l
4036
```

most of the entries in lsof were
```
COMMAND     PID   TID TASKCMD    USER   FD      TYPE             DEVICE    SIZE
/OFF       NODE NAME
emacs     30346 31097 gdbus     madhu  865r      REG               8,14       2
5318    1334064 /14/build/emacs/lisp/net/tramp-archive.elc
emacs     30346 31097 gdbus     madhu  866r      REG               8,14       2
5318    1334064 /14/build/emacs/lisp/net/tramp-archive.elc
emacs     30346 31097 gdbus     madhu  867r      REG               8,14       2
5318    1334064 /14/build/emacs/lisp/net/tramp-archive.elc
emacs     30346 31097 gdbus     madhu  868r      REG               8,14       2
```

Of course I could do nothing but kill the process. I updated mew to 6.9
and tried the sequence again in a fresh emacs, but wasn't able to
reproduce this (but hit a vertico bug instead)

If this looks familiar, or if someone has a clue about it, please tell
me. Maybe I should a bug report under the `tramp' product if I hit it
again.
