Description

Every method of SLF4JLogger that uses Markers, attempt to cast org.slf4j.Marker (actually, they are more likely to be org.slf4j.helpers.BasicMarker) into org.apache.logging.log4j.Marker and causes ClassCastException.

This behaviour has been spotted on isTraceEnabled(Marker), isDebugEnabled(Marker), isWarnEnabled(Marker)... and the method that calls them: trace(Marker, String), debug(Marker, String)...
