Log4j2Plugin.dat not generated for OpenTelemetryAppender

[rickardoberg]

Describe the bug

The OpenTelemetryAppender does not generate a Log4jPlugin.dat, so it doesn't get discovered by Log4j. Please just add the log4j annotation processor to the build script so that this is created properly.

Steps to reproduce

Using the documented configuration with "packages" attribute causes unnecessary warnings on startup, since it is deprecated

Expected behavior

You should just generate the Log4jPlugin.dat file as any other Log4j plugin.

Actual behavior

Requires use of "packages" attribute. Which is Bad.
