Description

Since Sightly generated classes are instantiated with a DynamicClassLoader obtained from the ClassLoaderWriter, the context class loader used on a Sightly execution thread should be of the same type.

This way the cleaning mechanism that will be implemented for SLING-4783 will properly remove strong references to Sightly generated classes.
