Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/receiverComponent'
This branch refactors the previously contributed "server" and "remote" components such that they now extend a common "receiver" component. A receiver is a component that receives logging events from a remote appender. A connection between and an appender and a receiver may be initiated in either direction; i.e. a receiver may initiate the connection to an appender or vice-versa. The receiver component is configured in Joran using a <receiver> element. The class specified in this element determines whether the receiver will passively await connections from remote appenders (i.e. as in the legacy SimpleSocketServer) or whether it will initiate a connection to a remote appender (a ServerSocketAppender).
