Ensure removal of all ThreadLocal values
----------------------------------------
Key: OWB-466
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OWB-466
Project: OpenWebBeans
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.0.0-alpha-2
Reporter: Jakob Korherr
Assignee: Gurkan Erdogdu
While running our automated webapp tests with MyFaces CODI and OWB, I always
got the following log entries:

clearThreadLocalMap
SCHWERWIEGEND: A web application created a ThreadLocal with key of type
[java.lang.ThreadLocal] (value [java.lang.threadlo...@543c944f]) and a value of
type [org.apache.webbeans.inject.impl.InjectionPointImpl] (value [Field
Injection Point, field name : postConstructApplicationEvent, Bean Owner :

Types:[java.lang.Object,org.apache.myfaces.extensions.cdi.jsf2.impl.listener.system.SystemEventBroadcaster],Qualifiers:[javax.enterprise.inject.Any,javax.enterprise.inject.Default,javax.inject.Named]]])
but failed to remove it when the web application was stopped. To prevent a
memory leak, the ThreadLocal has been forcibly removed.

..saying that Tomcat's webappclassloader had to remove some ThreadLocal values
from the ThreadMap.
I was able to track the affected ThreadLocal instances down: InstanceBean.local
and WebContextsService.sessionContext.
After digging into the code, I found out that there are many remove()
operations on various ThreadLocal instances, but it was not thought that
remove() only works for the current Thread. Thus when a ThreadLocal is set
during a request it won't be removed when the container stops, because the
shutdown-thread is clearly not the same as the request-thread.
This means the request-ThreadLocal instances have to be removed after every
request has ended - in requestDestroyed(ServletRequestEvent event).
The provided patch adds some remove() calls in requestDestroyed() and also in
afterStopApplication(). With this patch none of the above error-logs are shown
in any of my test cases. However there might be some other ThreadLocals which
should be cleaned up at every request, but this solution currently works for me!
