[PLUTO-650] Objects such as portletConfig are available during JSP EL resolution even when portlet:defineObjects is not present

Description

The <portlet:defineObjects/> is a feature that enables the JSP pageContext to have attributes like portletConfig. One benefit of this feature is that JSP EL expressions can resolve these objects. For example:

<p>portletConfig=${portletConfig}</p>

If <portlet:defineObjects/> is missing from a JSP, then the objects should not appear as JSP pageContext attributes, and EL resolution should return null.

Pluto 3.0 contains a regression such that, even if <portlet:defineObjects/> is missing, EL resolution is returning a non-null value.

Steps to Reproduce:

• Deploy org.apache.portals.pluto.650.portlet.war (attached to this issue)
• Add the portlet to a Pluto portal page
• View the Pluto portal page

Expected Result:

portletConfig=
renderRequest=
renderResponse=
portletSession=
portletSessionScope=
portletPreferences=
portletPreferencesValues=
portletRequest=
portletResponse=
renderParams=
portletContext=
portletMode=
windowState=
cookies=
locale=
locales=
namespace=
contextPath=
windowId=
