> New source to be able to tail a file. There's a extra file when it saves the last offset until it has been read. So, it Flume is down, it could read the data it lost. It has been implemented control about rotated files. 
> The possible variables to configure this source are:
> -BufferSize gives us the possibility to send little to little.
> -Separator to cut the lines wherever we want  to to generate our events.
> -WatchedFile to indicate what file we want to watch.
> -RotatedFile to indicate where the wacthed file is going to rotate.
> -Type of events to indicate if we generate one event per line or we want to group many lines and just emit one event.
