Review Comment:
   This is what the previous code in `BrokerMetadataCheckpoint.scala` did. The 
reason for doing it this way is for extra safety, as @pprovenzano commented. 
Some filesystems (I think ext3 was a notable offender) tended to lose data when 
fsync was omitted, even in the case where other operations like rename were 
performed later.
   
   Since we only very rarely write the `meta.properties` file, it's surely not 
worth optimizing this by avoiding the fsync.
