[MC-146854] Player movement favors x axis when in a corner

When you jump out of a corner, you don't move diagonally but either east or west (along the x axis).

Position yourself in a corner
Look exactly diagonally
Press forward
Press jump
→ ❌ You're jumping either into positive or negative X direction, no matter what
