Mannequin expansion

Mannequins are so great, but they can be much greater. No, not AI, but the ability for them to play different animations - attacking (any arm), charge crossbow/bow/trident, brushing etc, walking, while not moving. Also, there should be 3 different states - standing, sneaking and crawling/swimming. Would make mannequins much better and much more useful in datapack and/or map making. And, potentially, even custom hurt/death sounds.

    Allowing for interactions (like the interaction entity) with them would be nice as well
