docs: Removed misleading sync adapter section.

Removed section "Run the Sync Adapter After a Network Message," as
several members of DevRel believe that the explanation and code
sample were too misleading. Also removed related TOC entry and
"dictionary entry" (within the user-friendly list of options for sync
adapters) at the end of the introductory section for this topic.

-<h2 id="RunByNetwork">Run the Sync Adapter After a Network Message</h2>
-<p>
-    When a network connection is available, the Android system sends out a message
-    every few seconds to keep the device's TCP/IP connection open. This message also goes to
-    the {@link android.content.ContentResolver} of each app. By calling
-    {@link android.content.ContentResolver#setSyncAutomatically setSyncAutomatically()},
-    you can run the sync adapter whenever the {@link android.content.ContentResolver}
-    receives the message.
-</p>
-<p>
-    By scheduling your sync adapter to run when the network message is sent, you ensure that your
-    sync adapter is always scheduled to run while the network is available. Use this option if you
-    don't have to force a data transfer in response to data changes, but you do want to ensure
-    your data is regularly updated. Similarly, you can use this option if you don't want a fixed
-    schedule for your sync adapter, but you do want it to run frequently.
-</p>
-<p>
-    Since the method
-    {@link android.content.ContentResolver#setSyncAutomatically setSyncAutomatically()}
-    doesn't disable {@link android.content.ContentResolver#addPeriodicSync addPeriodicSync()}, your
-    sync adapter may be triggered repeatedly in a short period of time. If you do want to run
-    your sync adapter periodically on a regular schedule, you should disable
-    {@link android.content.ContentResolver#setSyncAutomatically setSyncAutomatically()}.
-</p>
-<p>
-    The following code snippet shows you how to configure your
-    {@link android.content.ContentResolver} to run your sync adapter in response to a network
-    message:
-</p>
-<pre>
-public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {
-    ...
-    // Constants
-    // Content provider authority
-    public static final String AUTHORITY = "com.example.android.datasync.provider";
-    // Account
-    public static final String ACCOUNT = "default_account";
-    // Global variables
-    // A content resolver for accessing the provider
-    ContentResolver mResolver;
-    ...
-    &#64;Override
-    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
-        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
-        ...
-        // Get the content resolver for your app
-        mResolver = getContentResolver();
-        // Turn on automatic syncing for the default account and authority
-        mResolver.setSyncAutomatically(ACCOUNT, AUTHORITY, true);
-        ...
-    }
-    ...

 <h2 id="RunPeriodic">Run the Sync Adapter Periodically</h2>

     You can run your sync adapter periodically by setting a period of time to wait between runs,
