Hook not Fire()ed in a goroutine, causing application hangs

client...Do() is not a goroutine.

We forked and adapt the code to run in go routine.
Be aware you can't handle the error returned by elasticsearch ...

In our case we don't care, we need the log to be fast. Using the goroutine is 1000 times faster than original code.

The problem here is that you can leak the goroutines because this concept is fire and forget. And in extream case, you will get in troubles. Maybe this could be handled by pooling, so let's say you can have 20 parallel requests to elastic in one time.

The asynchronous hook added you can create the async hook by NewAsyncElasticHook function.
