Carlo Nucera fb05a6adcf Eliminate old TeeSink abstraction
This was introduced in fa125b9b28, and
then "reverted" in 1cf4801108, except that
revert left the struct around doing nothing useful.

We're removing it all the way now because we want to make a new
`TeeSink` complementing the already-exiting `TeeSource`, that is
actually a completely different concept as far as the class hierarchy is
concerned.
