Review comment:
1. I've never understood the point of a detached Marker. A marker is
essentially nothing more than a String to be compared. Having multiple
instances of the String makes no sense to me (which is why Log4j 2 didn't
implement it).
2. My fear with this is that it will lead to a bug report that SLF4J
detached markers aren't detached. Saying we don't support them sends a clearer
message.
