Users are logged out after the server session expires even if the "Remember Me" option is ticked on Tomcat 11

Steps to reproduce

1. Go to the servlet config files and set a short session timeout (for the test purpose, e.g. on Tomcat go to <server path>/conf/web.xml and set <session-timeout>1</session-timeout> in order for the session to expire after 1 minute)
2.  Start XWiki instance
3. Clear cache and all cookies (to make sure they don't have any impact)
4. Click 'Log-in'
5. Fill the username and password of an user/Admin, and tick "Remember me" option
6. Wait until the session timeout expires and refresh the page
7. Observe the state of the user

Expected results

The user is still logged in, since the "Remember me" option was checked at login.

Actual results

The user is logged out.

I could reproduce the issue as well on XWiki 17.8.0, but it couldn't be reproduced on my side on XWiki 16.10.9 (here I reproduced a different behavior: the user remains logged in regardless if the session timeout expires even if "Remember me" is not ticked).
