Review comment:
       In log4j1 the `MDC` held a reference to an object, so changing the 
`proxyUserName` on this object changed the `MDC` as well. But in log4j2 there 
is a `ThreadContext` instead of `MDC` which can hold only key value pairs. So 
changing the `proxyUserName` on the `AuditContext` won't change the the 
threadContext without reattaching (thus populating the key values) again.
