The problem

When doing

const { transports, createLogger } = require('winston');

 const logger = createLogger({
      transports: [transports.Console({level: 'silly'})],
  });

logger.info('info message', {meta: true}, 'one', 'two', 3);

The 'info' object will be

{
  level: 'info',
  message: 'info message',
  meta: true,
  Symbol('level'): 'info',
  Symbol('message'): '{"level":"info","message":"info2","meta": true}',
  Symbol('splat'):  [{meta: true}, 'one', 'two', 3], // correct
}

But when a child logger is spawned

const { transports, createLogger } = require('winston');

 const logger = createLogger({
      transports: [transports.Console({level: 'silly'})],
 });

const child = logger.child({meta: true});

child.info('info message', 'one', 'two', 3);

The 'info' object will be

{
  level: 'info',
  message: 'info message',
  meta: true,
  Symbol('level'): 'info',
  Symbol('message'): '{"level":"info","message":"info2","meta": true}',
  Symbol('splat'):  ['one', 'two', 3], // wrong
}

The splat is missing the provided default meta object

Minimum Working Example

const { transports, createLogger } = require('winston');

const logger = createLogger({
    transports: [transports.Console({level: 'silly'})],
  });

logger.info('info message', {meta: true}, 'one', 'two', 3); // splat correct here

const child = logger.child({meta: true});

child.info('info message', 'one', 'two', 3) // splat wrong here, missing "{meta: true}"

Does this work any better in 3.7.1 specifically? That version had some changes to how metadata was handled which were quickly rolled back, but it'd be useful to know if they fixed this.
