Migrate Log4j to SLF4J

Recipe IDorg.openrewrite.java.logging.slf4j.Log4jToSlf4jArtifactorg.openrewrite.recipe:rewrite-logging-frameworks

Migrates usage of Apache Log4j to using SLF4J directly. Use of the traditional Log4j to SLF4J bridge can result in loss of performance, as the Log4j messages must be formatted before they can be passed to SLF4J. Note, this currently does not modify log4j.properties files.
