Make f:param a ValueHolder so that a converter can be used on the value

[glassfishrobot]

Here's an easy one for 2.3 (hopefully). It has already been solved in OmniFaces.

Language file:

footer.copyright=© {0} Company, LLC. All Rights Reserved.

Facelet template:

<h:outputFormat value="#{messages['footer.copyright']}" escape="false">
    <f:param value="#{now}">
        <f:convertDateTime pattern="yyyy" type="date"/>
    </f:param>
</h:outputFormat>

Intended output:

© 2016 Company, LLC. All Rights Reserved.

Error that I get instead:

<f:convertDateTime> Parent not an instance of ValueHolder: javax.faces.component.UIParameter@10e350f

When I change f:param to o:param (OmniFaces), problem solved.
