[MYFACES-3199] Handling AbortProcessingException is unconsistent

Description

UIViewRoot:
try

{ source.broadcast(event); }

catch (AbortProcessingException e)
{
ExceptionQueuedEventContext exceptionContext
= new ExceptionQueuedEventContext(context, e, source, context.getCurrentPhaseId());
context.getApplication().publishEvent(context, ExceptionQueuedEvent.class, exceptionContext);

// Abortion
return false;
}

Problem 1:
<h:inputText valueChangeListener="#

{bean.processValueChange}

">

MethodExpressionValueChangeListener wraps all exceptions to AbortProcessingException and therefore exception is queued

Problem 2:
<h:inputText >
<f:valueChangeListener binding="#

{bean}

" />
</h:inputText>
ValueChangeListenerHandler does not wrap exception to AbortProcessingException and therefore exception is not queued in this block (but it is queued from phase executor but without component info)

Problem 3: JSF spec 2.1 :
"Clarification made: throwing an AbortProcessingException tells an implementation that no further broadcast of the
current event occurs. Does not affect future events."
But I think that code in UIViewRoot makes opposite: // Abortion return false;
