Holger Just 3c27f2ae70 Remove Rackstash::Sink
The Sink was a vehicle to transport some shared state between the logger
instance and the buffers, most notably the default fields and default
tags.

It turns out however, that error handling during merging of the
default_fields and default_tags is non trivial since there, the buffer
is in sime kind of limbo: users won't write to it anymore (and thus
don't expect exceptions there) while the error handling of the
individual flows is not yet reached. Since users can specify procs in
default_fields, they can still raise for whatever user-defined reason.

Luckily, the insertion of default fields and default tags can easily be
done by a filter later anyway, under the protection of the flow's error
handling in Flow#write. This allows us just remove the whole concept of
the sink and just pass the Flows object to the Buffer.

Not having to merge default_fields during event creation significantly
simplifies Buffer#to_event which was rather ugly to begin with but now
turned out quite beatifully.
