Allow Threshold Filter to filter out levels above provided level
----------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: LBCLASSIC-286
                 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-286
             Project: logback-classic
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Other
    Affects Versions: 0.9.30
            Reporter: Robert Elliot
            Assignee: Logback dev list
            Priority: Minor


It would be nice if a property could make the existing ThresholdFilter act in the opposite way - so that it response with NEUTRAL to levels equal to or _below_ the configured level, instead of equal to or above it.  This would mean you could use two appenders with ThresholdFilters to split logging between error/warn on the one hand and info/debug/trace on the other, for instance.

A new property (perhaps "revers"?) could be created with a default value of false and it would be backward compatible.

(It's trivial to do yourself, of course, but it would be nice to have out of the box.)
