[MC-49580] Swimming in water causes held items to "darken"

When swimming in water, or when in a boat, items held in your hand will darken. The pics I attached compare swimming to standing on land with the lighting on the items.

Confirmed, but probably intended.

Your items are getting wet, thus darker...

Doesn't seem intended, it also happens when your feet are inside any opaque full block.
