Projectiles have done less knockback to players since 1.14

Since Minecraft 1.9, projectiles have done about 2 blocks of knockback to players and most mobs.
Since release 1.14, this is no longer the case. While projectiles still do 2 blocks of knockback to most mobs, they now do only do about 1 block of knockback to players.
