Description

The MongoDB Appender should use a keys and values for a Log4j MapMessage.

When a MapMessage is passed to a logger API and that Message makes it all the way to the MongoDB provider of a NoSQL Appender, then the resulting object sent to MongoDB will have the MapMessage keys and values instead of the fields of the LogEvent.
