Grc/blocks/blks2_variable_sink_x.xml gone in the last few weeks

Why/when was variable sink removed? It seems to have been in the last
few weeks.

It’s still used in gnuradio-examples/grc/simple/var_sink_taps.grc among
a bunch of places in our own code.

You can use the function probe block and a level probe. It periodically
polls a blocks function and sets it to a variable. It should work better
than the variable sink block because of the way it was implemented there
was some screwy issues w/ buffering.

I should probably remove that example. The xmlrpc block is a far better
way to control something like that.
