Deprecate LoggerLayoutTTCC

[Ivan Habunek <iv...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

It's my opinion that the TTCC layout should be deprecated. My reasons are:
1. The name is confusing - uses the terms "category" inherited from
log4j, and "thread" which makes no sense in PHP
2. The implementation is not very nice, uses 4 configuration options
which offer some possibility of customization, but much less than the
Pattern layout.
3. It can very easily be replaced by the Pattern layout.

I propose to add a deprecation notice to the layout and remove it some
time in the future, after users have had time to adapt (i.e. it would
_not_ be deleted right away in 2.3). Also I would create a mini guide
how to replace it with the Pattern layout on the layout doc page.

Please say if you object to this or have some other suggestion.

Regards,
Ivan
