    Description

      When using the KafkaAppender the KafkaManager only sends the value of a message to a Kafka topic.

      It could be useful to be able to assign a value to the key of that message via configuration instead of having it null.

      Check https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/blob/master/log4j-core/src/main/java/org/apache/logging/log4j/core/appender/mom/kafka/KafkaManager.java#L99
