Faces 4.0: rename "jsf" throughout source code to "faces"

[BalusC]

"JSF" throughout source code must be renamed to "Jakarta Faces" or at least "Faces". No abbreviations.

For JavaScript:

• Rename jsf.js file to faces.js
• Rename window.jsf variable to window.faces (so jsf.util.*, jsf.ajax.*, jsf.push.* become faces.util.*, faces.ajax.*, faces.push.*)

For JNDI:

• Rename jsf/ClientSideSecretKey to faces/ClientSideSecretKey
• Rename jsf/FlashSecretKey to faces/FlashSecretKey

For passthrough elements:

• Rename xmlns:jsf to xmlns:faces.
• Advocate new namespace prefix in documentation (e.g. "such as <input type="text" jsf:id >" must become "such as <input type="text" faces:id >"

For log strings:

• Rename key jsf.* to faces.*
• Rename text "JSF" to "Faces"

For impl:

• Rename com.sun.faces.facelets.tag.jsf package to com.sun.faces.facelets.tag.faces
• Rename Jsf / JSF / jsf in method/variable/class names to Faces / Faces / faces
• Rename mojarra.jsfcljs to mojarra.cljs

Doubts:

• https://jakarta.ee/specifications/faces/2.3/apidocs/javax/faces/webapp/prejsf2exceptionhandlerfactory I'd rather get rid of it.
• jsfc attribute - the newer passthrough elements feature should be used instead. Moreover, the jsfc attribute was never officially mentioned in original Faces API specs, it just sneaked into Faces impls as part of Facelets.

PR created in Mojarra project: eclipse-ee4j/mojarra#4833

@BalusC FacesConfig.java still uses JSF

[tandraschko]

and what should we do about jsfc?
just find a good name for it? maybe something like faces:component="h:outputText"

[tandraschko]

and +1 to delete PreJsf2ExceptionHandlerFactory

[tandraschko]

ResourceHandler also still contains "JSF_" vars
i think we should rename all

[BalusC]

• FacesConfig: I didn't rename it because there was a pending ticket to remove it
• jsfc is basically superseded by passthrough elements, I think we better just remove it to keep things simple and unambiguous
• PreJsf2ExceptionHandlerFactory will be deprecated
• ResourceHandler constants were indeed overlooked, the old ones should be deprecated and new ones should be added

[tandraschko]

1. all right
2. it is ok for me but jsfc has a powerful feature to map e.g. "input" to "p:inputText". So one can use plain html and map them to PF via a single attribute. quite nice.
3. Really just deprecate PreJsf2ExceptionHandlerFactory? Never seens anyone uses it since 10 years JSF ;D
4. +1

If I'm not mistaken, "jsfc" originally came in by accident. Both Mojarra and MyFaces essentially copied in Jackob's Facelet code, and it just had the "jsfc" attribute, even though it wasn't specified or anything.

Maybe if it becomes "component" we could take the opportunity to specify it better (if still needed).

1. We still need to retrofit @FacesConfig. Change API description, deprecate the Version, etc. Better create new ticket for focused discussion or reopen existing from manorrock.
2. I'll leave it as-is for now. Better create new ticket for focused discussion.
3. Alright, I'll just completely remove it! Completely remove PreJsf2ExceptionHandlerFactory eclipse-ee4j/mojarra#4907
4. Done: Rename ResourceHandler constants eclipse-ee4j/mojarra#4908

3 + 4 also fixed in MyFaces
i think we can close this now
