`pacman -Fy` is a modern replacement for `pkgfile`[1].

This service/timer makes `pacman -Fy` have feature parity with `pkgfile`.

The unit files were based on both pkgfile and paccache, for consistency with the existing ecosystem.

May be a bit late now but the name of the service really should be pacman-filesdb instead of pacman-syncdb. Also the description is a little broken and could be something simpler like "Refresh pacman files database".
