Lucas Alvares Gomes 4b802c47b5 Add sync() command to the standby module
This patch is adding a new command called sync to the standby module of
IPA. The new command runs synchronously and it's responsible for
flushing file system buffers to the disks.

The initial intention for this command is to use it as part of the fix
for the bug #1512492 where some hardware/firmwares do have problems to
come back online after a soft ACPI power off, therefore we need to call
sync() to make sure all file system buffers have been synced and then
issue a hard power off (e.g via the BMC).

Partial-Bug: #1512492
