Modify zero-free_space to sync the file and remove within it

Browse Source 
There appear to be race conditions in some environments around mounting
and unmounting a file system quickly failing due to a device in use error.

This change removes the extra umount/mount/rm/umount sequence around
rootfs/filler which was done to ensure the file was being synced to disk.

Instead the dd command has added conv=fdatasync which causes it to sync
the file to disk on completion.

This also fixes a possible loopback device leak where the unmount would fail
and then build output directory deletion would fail because the rootfs was
still mounted, leaking both disk space and loopback devices.

BUG=chromium-os:22308
TEST=Ran filefrag on filler, validated that rootfs.image has blocks of 0 bytes
  in each position
  Compressed chromiumos_base_image.bin, compared size to previous build_image
  Booted image on tegra2 device, confirmed it still boots
