[MC-273891] Cursor item drops on death while keep inventory is enabled.

When a player is holding an item with their cursor and are killed the item drops no matter the keep inventory gamerule setting.

Can confirm. This is probably because the item is technically not in the inventory.

Perhaps the fix is that the cursor slot should be considered a part of the inventory.
