posix: add sync, fsync, and fdatasync (905 bytes, patch)

Description raster 2009-08-02 20:02:08 UTC 
I needed to use the SYNC() call (man 2 sync) in a program, to ensure that some data has been written in the disk before validating it in a register. I tried to use Posix.sync(), but found that the bindings lacks them, so I had to use Process.spawn_command_line_sync("sync") to call the command line and do a sync.
