This is probably the route I would choose. The only purpose of this value is to
deduplicate log events with the **same timestamp**. Short of creating a
`ContextDataProvider` with a counter, I don't see a reliable way to do that.
Log duplication shouldn't occur anyway, except misconfigurations like:
```xml
<Loggers>
<Root level="INFO">
<AppenderRef ref="GCP"/>
</Root>
<!-- Additivity is intentionally not disabled to create duplicates -->
<Logger name="org.apache.logging">
<AppenderRef ref="GCP"/>
</Logger>
</Loggers>
```
