The reconnectionDelayMillis parameter was renamed to reconnectDelayMillis.
After updating to release 2.8 I noticed that I was getting the following
error:

ERROR Syslog contains an invalid element or attribute
"reconnectionDelayMillis"


It appears that change was part of this commit:

    [LOG4J2-1709]

    Add a Builder to SyslogAppender and deprecate
    SyslogAppender.createAppender().



The documentation (https://logging.apache.org/lo
g4j/2.x/manual/appenders.html#SyslogAppender) still has the parameter
listed as "reconnectionDelayMillis" but the code is now obviously looking
for "reconnectDelayMillis". I'm going to change my config to use the new
name, but I thought I'd point out the disconnect as it had me confused for
a bit. Thanks - Sam
