Description

In some cases components have to write to different parts of a page. With the current implementation you can only keep appending the page.
I've attached a new class, with which it should be possible to add subsinks to which you can write at any time.

Code might look like this

baseSink.text("Hello World");
Sink top = baseSink.addSink();
baseSink.horizontalRule();
Sink content = baseSink.addSink();
baseSink.text("So long, farewell");

After flushing the basesink, subsinks will flush to the basesink.
Closing the basesink will close al subsinks as well.
