    Pakfire: call "sync" in function.sh after having extracted archives
    
    After upgrading to Core Update 157, a few number of users reported their
    systems to be unworkable after a reboot. Most of them (the systems, not
    the users) were apparently missing the new Linux kernel in their Grub
    configuration, causing a non-functional bootloader written to disk.
    
    While we seem to be able to rule out issues related to poor storage
    (SDDs, flash cards, etc.) or very high I/O load, it occurred to me we
    are not calling "sync" after having extracted a Core Update's .tar.gz
    file.
    
    This patch therefore proposes to do so. It is a somewhat homeopathic
    approach, though, but might ensure all parts of the system to have
    properly processed the contents of an extracted archive. While we cannot
    even reasonably guess it will solve the problem(s) mentioned initially,
    doing so cannot hurt either.
