[MC-305593] Zombie nautiluses are affected by Impaling while drowned aren't

According to MC-128249, drowned are not considered aquatic mobs due to them being undead. However, the zombie nautilus is considered both undead and aquatic and is therefore affected by both smite and impaling.

This is because regulaar nautiluses are aquatic, but zombie are not.

I think this works as intended.
