Mannequins should handle arm swinging

The mannequin entity should correctly handle the ClientboundAnimatePacket and swing it's arm. Currently making it swing its arm on the server-side doesn't do anything, as it does not update the arm swing time in LivingEntity.

This means it can not be used as a replacement for player NPCs on custom servers if those NPCs also need to attack.

I really like to use them instead of relying on hacky fake players, but this prevents me from doing so. I imagine other developers would also appreciate this.
