Don't send legacy clients their own death event#1296

Clients up to 1.13.2 run the local death handling on their own entity death event, clearing their own inventory client-side (most visibly an emptied hotbar on the death screen, since modern servers don't resync the inventory on death). The death screen still shows from the health update. 1.14+ clients no longer clear the inventory.
