Flush to receive go context type #746

Summary

Currently Flush function receives a timeout, so when it is called someone needs to provide a timeout value. By using a context of the app and propagating to Flush the operation will timeout whenever the context expires, so no explicit timeout is needed.

Motivation

This solution will remove some corner-case in the blocking operations of an application. If a long timeout is specified the application might wait for long. If the application already performs some finalisation and has an overall shutdown timeout, we would need to calculate the duration left to timeout, in order to provide to Flush.

This is definitely more in the spirit of Go, but we also need to respect the unified API for consistency across the various language SDKs.

Perhaps we could add a more Go specific Flush in addition to the common API?
