Signature Test Error: API References Implementation Class

[volosied]

TCK Version: Faces TCK 4.1.0

Tested Implementation: Open Liberty (with MyFaces 4.1.0-RC2)

Description: When Open Liberty is used against the Faces 4.1 signature test, it encounters a ClassNotFoundException by failing to find com.sun.faces.config.InitFacesContext. Upon looking at the Jakarta Faces API 4.1.0 source, we found the FacesContext imports the InitFacesContext class, and references it as a parameterized type in initContextServletContext ConcurrentHashMap.

As a follow up, we created the following bug in Mojarra: https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/mojarra/issues/5484 A snippet of the exception:

@BalusC @arjantijms Could you take a look whenever you have time (along with the other 2 challenges)? Thanks!
