Maria - various fixes around durability of files:

1) on Mac OS X >=10.3, fcntl() is recommended over fsync (from the
man page: "[With fsync()] the disk drive may also re-order the data
so that later writes may be present while earlier writes are not.
Applications such as databases that require a strict ordering of writes
should use F_FULLFSYNC to ensure their data is written in the order
they expect"). I have seen two other pieces of software changing from
fsync to F_FULLFSYNC on Mac OS X.
2) to make a file creation/deletion/renaming durable on Linux (at least
ext2 as I have tested) (see "man fsync"), a fsync() on the directory
is needed: new functions to do that, and a flag MY_SYNC_DIR to do
it in my_create/my_delete/my_rename.
3) now using this directory syncing when creating he frm if
opt_sync_frm, and for Maria's control file when it is created.


include/my_sys.h:
  new flag to my_create/my_delete/my_rename, which asks to sync the
  directory after the operation is done (currently does nothing except
  on Linux)
libmysql/CMakeLists.txt:
  my_create() now depends on my_sync() so my_sync is needed for libmysql
libmysql/Makefile.shared:
  my_create() now depends on my_sync() so my_sync is needed for libmysql
mysys/my_create.c:
  my_create() can now sync the directory if asked for
mysys/my_delete.c:
  my_delete() can now sync the directory if asked for
mysys/my_open.c:
  it was a bug that my_close() is done on fd but a positive fd would
  still be returned, by my_register_filename().
mysys/my_rename.c:
  my_rename() can now sync the two directories (the one of "from" and
  the one of "to") if asked for.
mysys/my_sync.c:
  On recent Mac OS X, fcntl(F_FULLFSYNC) is recommended over fsync()
  (see "man fsync" on Mac OS X 10.3).
  my_sync_dir(): to sync a directory after a file creation/deletion/
  renaming; can be called directly or via MY_SYNC_DIR in my_create/
  my_delete/my_rename(). No-op except on Linux (see "man fsync" on Linux).
  my_sync_dir_from_file(): same as above, just more practical when the
  caller has a file name but no directory name ready.
  Should the #warning even be a #error? I mean do we want to release
  binaries which don't guarantee any durability?
sql/log.cc:
  a TODO for the future.
sql/unireg.cc:
  If we sync the frm it makes sense to also sync its creation in the
  directory.
storage/maria/ma_control_file.c:
  control file is vital, try to make it to disk
