Description

Rename all Sync* things (throughout the whole system) to Pull, for a couple of reasons:

1. the word "synchronization" evokes some kind of bidirectional flow, while instead we intend pulling users, groups and any objects from external resources by relying on either search() or sync() ConnId operations
2. we are already using "push" for the opposite operation

Moreover, it would be good, once changed all references, to include a "synchronization use case" in the documentation from SYNCOPE-700, which involves creating a pull task with assign matching request so that, for example, users pulled from LDAP will also be automatically assigned the LDAP resource.
