Per Player mob cap

(about java but could apply to bedrock too) currently having a global mob cap leads to some player having loads of mobs near them and some having very few, my suggestion is have a mob cap for each player and then mobs spawning around that player check only their mob cap, this way there would be 70 hostile mobs near each player rather than 130 by one and only 10 by another.

    This is also very important for non-spawner based mob farms (e.g. creeper farm, wither skeleton farm, etc.) since the farm depends on restricting where the mobs spawn.  This would be excellent for servers where people want to build such mob farms.  As of now, having even just one other person in the same dimension on the server with you, but in a non-spawn proofed area leads to a considerable reduction in farm efficiency.

    I have been wanting something similar to this for a long time. However, I think an area based system rather than a player based system would work better.
