    g_file_set_contents(): don't fsync on ext3/4
    
    ext3 and ext4 (for quite some time) with default mount options don't
    need fsync() to ensure safety of replace-by-rename.  Stop doing that for
    these filesystems.
    
    Note: this patch also impacts ext2, which is probably not safe, but I
    don't know of any way to check ext2. vs the others because they all have
    the same magic numbers (short of opening /proc/mount).
    
    This patch assumes that if BTRFS_SUPER_MAGIC is defined then so will be
    EXT3_SUPER_MAGIC.
