With 1.4, entity sound tracking changed for the better.
Our previous method additions can now be removed.
All that's left is checking if the source can be seen
by the recipient of the sound packet. Thanks, Mojang!
This implementation of a visibility API check for sounds
was created by adding extra methods carrying the source entity
in WorldManager and ServerConfigurationManagerAbstract and
adding a test for canSee in the SCMA sendPacketNearby method.
This approach involves no logic copying, just method addition.
I opted to cast to WorldManager as:
1) IWorldAccess is not in CraftBukkit at the moment
2) There is no other IWorldAccess implemented in CraftBukkit,
nor is there likely to be one soon. If that day comes, easy fix.
