Description

Propose to rename AsynchAppender to AsyncAppender.
In addition rename the plugin name for that appender from Asynch to Async.

Reasons for renaming:

• consistency with Log4j-1.x and Logback naming
• consistency with Log4j-2.0 Async Loggers naming
• personal preference

As per discussion on the mailing list, we can still make this change since we are still in beta.
