refactor: simplify opening file in new tab

fixes #1271. Also fixes opening a file in new tab when close_on_open was
true.

This introduces breaking change since we don't do any extra behavior
and let the buffer be opened by the tree.
The previous behavior was a bit old and i believe this should've been
fixed by now.
Reference this commit if unexpected behavior appears while opening files
in new tabs from nvim-tree.
