We can double the speed of "adb sync" (on N9) if we increase SYNC_DATA_MAX
from 64KiB to 256KiB. This change doesn't do that, because I still haven't
managed to plumb through the information about whether we're a new adb/adbd
to file_sync_client.cpp and file_sync_service.cpp. But this is already a big
change with a lot of cleanup, so let's do the cleanup and worry about the
intended change another day...
This change does improve performance somewhat by halving the number of
lstat(2) calls made on the client side, and ensuring that most packets are
sent with a single write. This has the pleasing result of making the null
sync on an AOSP N9 go from just over 300ms to around 100ms, which means it
now seems instantaneous (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_chronometry).

In the SERVICES.TXT a missing documentation file is mentioned - SYNC.TXT. This file is supposed to contain all the godie bits of the adb protocol for pushing and pulling files. I've read the source code and documented this in the file SYNC.TXT. I've used my own documentation to create a java implementation to verify the documentation here: https://github.com/vidstige/jadb
Added line breaks at 78 characters. Added comments about remote files might be deleted.
