Hi All,

We have no way to know what's in use since in 2.x everything is packaged in
the same module (log4j2-core) which has both JSON, YAML, and XML support,
so looking at Maven Central stats is no help.

This would actually drop support for XML and YAML, so what would 2.x users
of those layouts do? I've seen XML in use here and there but I've not paid
attention in a while.

It does not seem quite right to drop support for XML and YAML.
