Re: [I] `PropertiesConfigurationBuilder` throws instead of returning `null` [logging-log4j2]

   As @rgoers stated in [this Slack post](https://the-asf.slack.com/archives/C4TQW0M5L/p1739878787097369?thread_ts=1739876477.150569&cid=C4TQW0M5L)

   In short, we shouldn't have partially applied configurations. I suggest following [the design I shared in the comment above](https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/issues/3088#issuecomment-2671827292): throwing exceptions in component initialization failures, and catching them in `ConfigurationBuilder::build` methods.
