Better Player Visibility

Calls something that is on Kiln's roadmap. Parts of it may already run.

Evidence

Ran on Kiln's test stand (2026-11-04): BetterPlayerVisibilityClient did not start: java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: Class net.minecraft.client.Minecraft does not have member field 'java.io.File gameDirectory'.
