Description
### Apache NetBeans version
Apache NetBeans 22
### What happened
when choosing a framework in project settings the JSF option doesn't produce the dropdown option to select the default server library or to give the option of uploading a different or new jar file. When progressing throught the Application settings the Framework Tab is highlighted as an error and the settings can't be saved.
This used to work some time back (about 12 or 13) but has not worked of late.
Is this recognition of a new best practice design practice or is this an oversight. I now use Maven as my default way of loading dependencies but was not sure on where netbeans pulls its resources from regarding frameworks.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the Maven Web App JSF framework setup in Apache NetBeans 22 on Ubuntu 24.04 with JDK 21, then compare the behavior with NetBeans 16 or earlier. Done means the Framework tab provides a server-library selection or upload option and the application settings can be saved.
