[MC-180692] Entities on fire after standing on soul fire doesn't deal twice the amount of damage

Not a duplicate of MC-170828, or even MC-177870.

After standing on soul fire for 3 seconds or less, you are still on fire, but the damage is not doubled.

Use a flint and steel on soul sand/soil to create soul fire
Stand on soul fire for 3 seconds
Walk away from the soul fire
→ ❌ You'll continue burning, but the damage isn't doubled as you would expected. (Half a heart damage)

Entities in soul fire also have the same burning animation as normal fire. That could be the reason why this happens.

@bugsbugsbugs You mean MC-170828 right?

Yes

Also, when reproducing this it is a good idea to not wear armor because of MC-171618.
