Previously, we configured embedded Tomcat in such a way that no TLD
scan patterns were configured. This differed from a standalone
Tomcat installation where 4 patterns are configured that take
precedence over some of the skip patterns. The missing scan patterns
resulted in the skip patterns preventing the discovery of Log4j2's
TLDs.

This commit updates TomcatServletWebServerFactory to configure the
same four scan patterns as standalone Tomcat configures by default.

Previously, the web environment configured on `@SpringBootTest` was not
part of the context cache key. As a result, two test classes that has
identical configuration other than one using a MOCK web environment and
the other using a DEFINED_PORT web environment would share a context
when they should not do so. Classes that use MOCK and RANDOM_PORT were
not affected as the use of RANDOM_PORT results in a property for the
port being added to the environment.

This commit adds a new ContextCustomizer, SpringBootTestWebEnvironment,
that is used to capture the `webEnvironment` from `@SpringBootTest`
and use it in its hashCode and equals implementations. This fixes the
problem as all context customizers are evaluated when determing the
equality of two context cache keys.

Previously LOG_LEVEL_PATTERN and LOG_DATEFORMAT_PATTERN were not
consumed as system properties in log4j2.xml and log4j2-file.xml. As a
result, the logging.pattern.level and logging.pattern.dateformat
configuration properties, which are translated into the
LOG_LEVEL_PATTERN and LOG_DATEFORMAT_PATTERN system properties
respectively had no effect.

This commit updates the log4j2.xml and log4j2-file.xml config files to
consume LOG_LEVEL_PATTERN and LOG_DATEFORMAT_PATTERN as system
properties. When the system property is not set, the configuation falls
back to the default values specified in the config files. Tests for
both log4j2.xml and log4j2-file.xml to verify the behaviour have also
bean added.
