Description

The changes in 3.x broke some old 2.x external plugins like [log4j2-logstash-layout](https://github.com/vy/log4j2-logstash-layout) (cf. #1586).

We should consider maintaining binary compatibility in some `util` classes (e.g. `Constants`) to allow most 2.x plugins to work with 3.x without any changes.
