Periodic Rotating File Handler Configuration

The rotation period is inferred based on the "suffix" value. The "suffix" is a string that can be parsed with java.text.SimpleDateFormat. .

    * Set the suffix string.  The string is in a format which can be understood by {@link java.text.SimpleDateFormat}.
    * The period of the rotation is automatically calculated based on the suffix.
    *
    * @param suffix the suffix
    * @throws IllegalArgumentException if the suffix is not valid
