pg_rewind: fsync target data directory.
Previously pg_rewind did not fsync any files. That's problematic, given
that the target directory is modified. If the database was started
afterwards,
2ce439f33 luckily already caused the data directory to be
synced to disk at postmaster startup; reducing the scope of the problem.
To fix, use initdb -S, at the end of the pg_rewind run. It doesn't seem
worthwhile to duplicate the code into pg_rewind, and initdb -S is
already used that way by pg_upgrade.
