Add a ServletContext configuration parameter for enabling/disabling automatic session creation in WeldListener/ServletLifecycle
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: WELD-675
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/WELD-675
             Project: Weld
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Servlet Container Support
    Affects Versions: 1.1.0.Beta1
            Reporter: Marius Bogoevici
             Fix For: 1.1.0.Beta2

As noted by Heiko here:

http://github.com/weld/core/pull/10

, the ServletListener  breaks in some versions of Jetty, since getSession() is unable to create a new Session.

However, completely disabling new session creation for the listener changes the way ServletListener behaves, in that the first request hitting a newly started server may not have a sessioncontext/requestcontext/conversationcontext assigned to it. 

While this can work fine in general, I think that we need some ability to finely tune this, by adding a ServletContext parameter which would control this behaviour (allow new session creation by default, but allow users to turn this off)
