[MC-306376] Armor now appears incorrectly on small armor stands

This behavior was introduced in 26.1-snapshot-7.

Steps to reproduce

Summon an armor stand with the Small tag set to 1b.
Put any armor piece on it.

Observed behavior

The armor piece will appear incorrectly, to the point of being unrecognizable.

Expected behavior

The armor piece would appear either as it did in previous versions or as it does on baby humanoid mobs.

Additionally, held items are misplaced when ShowArms is true.

Can confirm as of 26.1-snapshot-7.

Command:

/summon armor_stand ~ ~ ~ {Small:1b,ShowArms:1b}

Can confirm for 26.1-snapshot-9

The fix seems incomplete. The armor on a small stand is adult armor, not baby armor, which is what a small stand should have. I’m thinking this comment will re-open this bug, rather than having to file a new one.
