This commit introduces the `core.fsyncMethod` configuration knob, which can currently be set to `fsync` or `writeout-only`. The new writeout-only mode attempts to tell the operating system to flush its in-memory page cache to the storage hardware without issuing a CACHE_FLUSH command to the storage controller. Writeout-only fsync is significantly faster than a vanilla fsync on common hardware, since data is written to a disk-side cache rather than all the way to a durable medium. Later changes in this patch series will take advantage of this primitive to implement batching of hardware flushes. When git_fsync is called with FSYNC_WRITEOUT_ONLY, it may fail and the caller is expected to do an ordinary fsync as needed. On Apple platforms, the fsync system call does not issue a CACHE_FLUSH directive to the storage controller. This change updates fsync to do fcntl(F_FULLFSYNC) to make fsync actually durable. We maintain parity with existing behavior on Apple platforms by setting the default value of the new core.fsyncMethod option.
