Added GUC variable bgwriter_flush_method controlling the action

done by the background writer between writing dirty blocks and
napping.

    none (default)   no action
	sync             bgwriter calls smgrsync() causing a sync(2)

A global sync() is only good on dedicated database servers, so
more flush methods should be added in the future.
