Disable fsync throughout TAP test suites.

Most suites already did so via start_test_server(), but the pg_rewind,
pg_ctl and pg_controldata suites ran a postmaster or initdb with fsync
enabled. This halves the pg_rewind suite's runtime on buildfarm member
tern. It makes tern and that machine's other buildfarm members less
vulnerable to noise failures from postmaster startup overrunning the 60s
pg_ctl timeout. Back-patch to 9.5, where pg_rewind was introduced.
