Currently, http sink supports only having proto messages in kafka topic. These changes also support having a topic with only json messages when using a http sink.
Reasoning behind the changes in the PR:
Firehose currently tightly couples the source message format and the output sink format. As part of our analysis to add support for the use case of being able to read json message from kafka and send to http sink, we realized that adding the

toMessage
object would be a simpler way to solve this, without having to change the existing code too much and at the same time without muddling it up.
