LPS-44123 Fix regression caused by "LPS-44123 If we don't set explicitly the highlight check the portal property" - Default value was never used
LPS-44123 Remove unused var
LPS-44432 This code adds tons of coupling with external applications with no value at all. We don't need this code
LPS-44445 Include portletResource inside portletDisplay so we can get the preferences from the right portlet when the admin is configuration.jsp (because configuration.jsp is loaded from a different portlet but the preferences must refer to the portlet the admin is configuring (and we use the portletResource for that)
LPS-43575 Initial commit to use the new preferences framework to read the values of the preferences in message boards
