[BLOCKING LIVE CONTENT] Can't teleport an entity from a ticking area to the player

Release_749880 from 1.2.13.6

Summary: Teleporting an entity such as a dropped item from a tickingarea to the player causes the entity to stop existing.

Impact: Stranded in Space uses this to give players specific maps to show the locations of quest items. It is an integral part of the quest process and the only way custom maps can be given to the player. Without these, the quests become extremely difficult as the player has almost no information to go from and would require big steps of logic leaps in order for young children to make to get the required items.

Repro Steps:
1) make a ticking area
2) make a chest with an item in it
3) set up a sequence in which the chest is cloned, then destroyed, dropping the item and teleporting it to the player
4) fly thousands of blocks away, or outside your view distance in order for the tickingarea to be active but for you to be outside of the range of the tickingarea
5) activate the command block sequence

Observed Results: The command block sequences runs as expected, you can see the command outputs working. The item gets teleported according to the console, but the player does not get the item.

Expected Results: The player should get the item.
