pkg/log: remove timestamp (#3218)

journald timestamps, kubernetes timestamps, syslog timestamps. It seems
silly to add our own timestamps to the logging output as these external
ones *also* do it. Only when just running coredns this might be weird.

Remove the timestamping from pkg/log.

Remove test that tested for this.

Fixes: #3211
