Problem

Bedrock villagers send their profession in VARIANT, which ViaBedrock currently treats as unsupported. Bedrock horse owner metadata also triggers an entity lookup even though the Java horse has no synchronized owner field. The repeated warnings were observed while playing on a Bedrock 1.26.60 Realm through ViaProxy with Java 26.3.

Changes

• Combine the profession, biome variant, and trade tier for villager_v2 and zombie_villager_v2 into Java's VillagerData. Reuse stored metadata for partial updates and send one complete value per packet. Bedrock's profession and biome IDs are defined in Mojang's vanilla villager definition.
• Send the Java horse flags for taming, eating, and rearing from the Bedrock actor flags. Skip the unsupported horse owner field before attempting to look up the owner.

Verification

• ./gradlew build passed, including Checkstyle.
• Local packet tests covered all 15 villager professions and 7 biome variants, all trade tiers, partial updates, horse flags, and the existing owner translation for other tameable animals. The translated data was checked on Java 26.3 and through ViaBackwards to Java 1.21.4.
• The combined ViaProxy test build passed the cat regression check. A live retest on the affected Bedrock 1.26.60 Realm with Java 26.3 reached the PLAY state and loaded the village without the villager variant or horse owner warnings.
