Description

The split between JmsQueueAppender and JmsTopicAppender is quite arbitrary, especially since we use JMS 1.1 and not 1.0. These classes should be merged into a single JmsAppender that has plugin aliases for backwards compatibility.

I've already got some progress done toward this in the messaging-module branch. I'm just working on finishing the backwards compatibility and we should be good to go!
