[MC-271331] Locate command does not work for "The End" biome

1. Be in any biome in The End aside from the central island
2. Use "/locate biome minecraft:the_end" command

Result: the game will improperly output coordinates for another nearby End biome, not the central island.

How is this wrong? "Another nearby end biome" is exactly what the command is supposed to do

It's wrong because "the_end" is the name of the central biome where the ender dragon battle takes place, but using the locate command never points to that biome. This would be a headache for anyone needing to find their way back to the main island.

It seems like the locate command is actually unrelated to this issue, but rather world generation. When you check F3, the biome is "the_end". It seems like the_end biome extends all the way to the outer end islands, making some parts of the outer end islands the_end biome.

Also note that the center of the main end island is always at (0, 0), so you can easily find your way back. 🙂

The End biome takes up a circular radius of 1024 blocks from (0, 0), and the command points you to the closest block to your position that contains that biome. There is no bug here.
