Kiwi R3 2021 - Log4j vulnerability verification and correction

Description

The 'formatMsgNoLookups' property was added in version 2.10.0, per the JIRA Issue LOG4J2-2109 that proposed it. Therefore the 'formatMsgNoLookups=true' mitigation strategy is available in version 2.10.0 and higher, but is no longer necessary with version 2.16.0, because it then becomes the default behavior .

I have evaluated the dependencies for mod-ldp and we are currently not using log4j in any fashion (Spring Boot uses logback unless told to do otherwise), so no code changes will be required at this time.
