Description

I (we, internal project at work) would like to have a log4j-to-jul.

So the "opposite" of https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/log4j-jul/ (from https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/tree/master/log4j-jul). The use case here is if one has an existing JUL-based set-up into which you would like to see logs from a library that has been coded against the Log4j API.

Poking around https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/tree/master/log4j-to-slf4j/src/main/java/org/apache/logging/slf4j, I hope this won't be very hard to do, unless I'm missing something. I want log4j-to-jul to only depend on log4j-api and nothing else, notably NOT log4j-core.

Please assign this issue to me so that I can work on this and contribute it.
