Description

Right now log messages from processors will have the following format:

2017-05-12 10:43:37,780 INFO [Timer-Driven Process Thread-4] o.a.nifi.processors.standard.InvokeHTTP InvokeHTTP[id=f7ebb153-015b-1000-f590-599786e16340] <log message>

We have twice the information of the class name. Could be useful (in multi-tenant context) to have the processor name. If the processor is named "MyProcessor", we'd have something like:

2017-05-12 10:43:37,780 INFO [Timer-Driven Process Thread-4] o.a.nifi.processors.standard.InvokeHTTP MyProcessor[id=f7ebb153-015b-1000-f590-599786e16340] <log message>
