I think we should add support for java:comp/DefaultDataSource since it's
required by spec. Furthermore, this isn't essentially just JPA thing
since such and injected/lookedup datasource could even be used in a
non-JPA application.
I think the best solution is to add an element in the :ee: subsystem
that points to a JNDI name defined in the :datasources: subsystem.
We shouldn't make it a mandatory element though, since WildFly doesn't
require a datasource to operate.
