hv_utils: Allow implicit ICTIMESYNCFLAG_SYNC



Hyper-V hosts can omit the _SYNC flag to due a bug on resume from modern
suspend. In such a case, the guest may fail to update its time-of-day to
account for the period when it was suspended, and could proceed with a
significantly wrong time-of-day. In such a case when the guest is
significantly behind, fix it by treating a _SAMPLE the same as if _SYNC
was received so that the guest time-of-day is updated.

This is hidden behind param hv_utils.timesync_implicit.
