Sub-task

    [MYFACES-3741] - Implement CDI Flow Scope
    [MYFACES-3742] - Implement @FlowDefinition annotation
    [MYFACES-3764] - Implement
FlowHandler.getLastDisplayedViewId(FacesContext context) logic

Bug

    [MYFACES-2799] - JSF 2.1: jsf.js viewstate handling does not entirely
work out (bug filed on the spec tracker
    [MYFACES-3648] - some jsf files contain illegal UTF characters
    [MYFACES-3649] - myfaces-shaded-impl always unpacks myfaces-2.1.1
    [MYFACES-3650] - myfaces-2.2.x poms not properly set up
    [MYFACES-3657] - 2.2 branch: checkstyle violation prevents compile
    [MYFACES-3671] - jsf-uncompressed.js contains 'import' of not existing
file '_FinalizeableObj.js'
    [MYFACES-3697] - Error while parsing Facelet-Lib hides the real reason
when logging
    [MYFACES-3698] - h:body onload and onunload attributes rendered twice
if optimization enabled
    [MYFACES-3739] - @ResourceDependency annotation + JSF 1.2 state saving
+ c:if (dynamic section) creates components on each click (UIViewRoot grows)
    [MYFACES-3758] - Check for responseComplete or renderResponse only if a
phase listeners is used
    [MYFACES-3773] - ui:repeat with offset and size does not behave as
expected
    [MYFACES-3781] - f:view tag must be processed when view metadata is
created
    [MYFACES-3802] - CDI FlowBuilderFactoryBean declares
javax.faces.bean.ApplicationScoped (JSF managed bean annotation)

Improvement

    [MYFACES-3768] - FacesMessage Severity ordinal values are not
consistent with Mojarra RI
    [MYFACES-3774] - [perf] use facetName as a hint when try to find a
component on refresh view algorithm
    [MYFACES-3775] - [perf] optional early flush
    [MYFACES-3776] - [perf] cache FacesContext at ClientBehaviorBase level
    [MYFACES-3777] - [perf] minimize FacesContext.getCurrentInstance() in
some new points
    [MYFACES-3778] - [perf] cache url and request path for default Resource
implementations
    [MYFACES-3787] - Make WRAP_SCRIPT_CONTENT_WITH_XML_COMMENT_TAG=false
default
