[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Add macro to force fsync() on close() (#187)

[Jeff Johnson]

Another issue is that certain file systems (NFS? DFS? I forget ...) also delay I/O operations until close(2).

What I recall is that an application MUST check the return code of close(2) in order to ensure that the I/O was actually performed: it isn't sufficient to check the return code of write(2).
