          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Appenders

Change 707809 fixes issue with windows file name extension. 
>From filename.txt.1, filename.txt.2 it changes it to filename.1.txt, filename.2.txt. 
But it is still limiting form some use cases. I need to integrate logs with existing logging infrastucture that requires file names to be filename_0.log, filename_1.log.
I propose to add additional property to specify filename as a format pattern. I recommend using standard .net string format. So in my case file name would be filename_{0}.log.

It would also support other cases like requirement for filename to be filename_00.log, filename_01.log. Just specify format as filename_{00}.log

Also property to specify initial counter value is necessary to support my use case.
