Log events should have trace/span-related metadata #1976

Description

@jvz

This idea is also related to a more general idea of supporting the OpenTelemetry log data model, though the idea here would be to make standard log event attributes for trace context metadata like the trace id, span id, and flags. This would make it easier for observability libraries to integrate with Log4j without having to store data in ThreadContext and all the performance overhead that implies.
