MINOR: Fix ambiguous log message in RecordCollector When producing fails in Kafka Streams, it gives an error like below: ``` Error sending record: null ``` by this line: https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/streams/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/streams/processor/internals/RecordCollector.java#L59 This isn't not making sense because of: - Practically metadata is always null when exception != null : https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/clients/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/clients/producer/internals/RecordBatch.java#L107-L109 - It's quite misleading as we would interpret it like "Kafka Streams attempted to send 'null' as a record" which isn't in fact As I find a PR #873 as the origin of the above line I changed it to instantiate callback on each send in order to log destination topic at least.
