[Parity] Wither Skeletons with a bow are unable to shoot arrows

Wither skeletons are unable to use bows, unlike Java Edition

 

How to reproduce:

Bedrock commands: /summon wither_skeleton ~ ~ ~
/replaceitem @e[type=wither_skeleton] slot.weapong.mainhand 1 bow
Java command: /summon wither_skeleton ~ ~ ~ {HandItems:[{id:bow}]}

Alternate commands: /summon wither_skeleton ~ ~ ~
/item replace entity @e[type=wither_skeleton] weapon.mainhand with bow

Observed behavior:

The Wither Skeleton doesn't use the bow as it's supposed to be used, instead, hitting you with it when you get close to it

Expected behavior:

The Wither Skeleton aims the bow towards the player, and shoots an arrow to them
