[PATCH] fsync applet

For what it's worth, once upon a time I used a system
where sync(1) had a -f <file> option whereupon it
would only sync the volume upon which the file lay.
I don't know if this system was alone in having such
an option, certainly back in the day there was a lot
of cross-pollination.  That's not fsync, anyway, so
perhaps a separate applet is more appropriate.
