Parity Issue: Allays item detection range is significantly smaller than in Bedrock

      The Bug:

      Allays in Java edition only see items they're supposed to pick up within a range of about 6-8 blocks, the details are uncertain. This range, in comparison to Bedrock, is astronomically smaller.
      In Bedrock, Allays can detect items they're supposed to gather within a range of at LEAST 40 blocks, possibly more, and will fly toward it immediately and back.

      How to Reproduce:

      1. Set up a situation, probably with a dropper, in which an Allay has to pick up an item on Java edition from a great length; 40 blocks out.
      2. The Allay will take no notice, and only go to grab it as you move very close to the item
      3. Try the same thing on Bedrock; the Allay will be able to see the item quite far away and will go to collect it.

      The attached videos demonstrate this behavior difference in each version.

      ---------------------------------

      Important details as of 22w18a and Beta 1.19.0.3:

      Bedrock Item Detection Range: 64
      Java Item Detection Range: 32
