Garbage-generating PatternLayout#serialize(LogEvent,StringBuilder)

Hello,

For the records, PatternLayout#serialize(LogEvent,StringBuilder) falls
back to AbstractStringLayout#toSerializable(LogEvent,StringBuilder)
which consequently passes the ball to toSerializable(LogEvent), which
is not garbage-free. This is an obstacle for certain layouts (e.g.,
Gelf, JsonTemplate) that try to incorporate PatternLayout and strive
to stay garbage-free. Do/Shall we have plans to improve this?

Kind regards.
