Mock FacesContext in Arquillian

Recently I wanted to test my backing beans for JSF views. Unfortunately the EntityQuery (from seam3-persistence-framework) is very tightly bound to JSF api, particularly it depends on FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getELContext(). The problem is that the tests are not associated with JSF requests, so FacesContext.getCurrentInstance() returns null.

I decided to extend mock-contexts-extension to help mocking FacesContext.
