Remove SyncFirst option

This has outlived its usefulness and causes more problems than it
solves. It has historically only ever been used to install pacman first.
That should not be needed given we provide the vercmp utility (which has
no library dependencies) and so calling pacman in install scripts is a
sign of poor packaging.
