[MC-105979] Held lead breaks on save reload

When I quit the game with my horse leashed to me, the lead is broken when I re-enter the world.
This doesn't happen when the horse is leashed to a fence.

Happens in 1.10.2 as well

The reason for this seems to be that the server first starts loading all entities and updating them as well. After that the player joins the server. When the entities are updated the player has not joined yet and the leash target does not exist causing the leash to break.
