Format the specified record as text.

The record's attribute dictionary is used as the operand to a string formatting operation which yields the returned string. Before formatting the dictionary, a couple of preparatory steps are carried out. The message attribute of the record is computed using LogRecord.getMessage(). If the formatting string contains "%(asctime)", formatTime() is called to format the event time. If there is exception information, it is formatted using formatException() and appended to the message.
