Description

While the pid is available (via %z) it would be good to also make the worker id available when the cluster module is in use. I guess it should evaluate to 0 if the process is not a worker

Contributor guide

Research direction
Understand how layout pattern specifiers are implemented in log4js, then add support for worker id (e.g., %w) that returns cluster.worker.id if available, else 0.
