We won't be adding a web-fragement.xml to jsf-impl.jar. The primary
reason is if Mojarra is installed as a global library, this would cause
Mojarra to be bootstrapped for every application whether or not it used
JSF. Not ideal.
We *will* be adding a ServletContainerInitializer instead but we have
had to ship it disabled due to issues with the web container.
It will be re-enabled upon our next integration which will be some time
next week.
