(Fixes bug MC-297196 - Knockback is synchronized to client with inconsistent delay)
Responsive and smooth knockback
Syncs the mobs position as soon as knockback is applied. Fixing inconsistent visual delays between attack and knockback.

🔧 How it works:
Synchronizes entity positions later in the tick loop after the knockback has had an effect on the mobs position in a way which maximizes compatibility with other mods.
