opkg: Don't call sync() when installing into an offline root
Even when installing onto a live target system, calling sync() during package installation is of somewhat questionable benefit. But calling it on the build host during rootfs construction is certainly useless and can cause I/O to stall for several seconds on even a moderately sized host which is clearly not desirable. (From a patch originally by Mike Crowe.)

1When installing into an offline root, calling sync() is pointless and just
2hurts performance. Don't let's do that.
