* Cherry-pick fixes for sync() behaviour in dpkg (LP: #624877):
  - Disable by default usage of synchronous sync(2), as it causes undesired
    I/O on unrelated file systems. Closes: #588339, #595927, #600075
  - On Linux use sync_file_range() to initiate asynchronous writeback
    of just unpacked files. Suggested by Ted Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>.
    Thanks to Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com>. Closes: #605009
