      I would like to suggest the addition of a method Entity#getDropMaterial
      This would return the material (item) that represents this entity.

      Examples:
      ArmorStand -> Material.ARMOR_STAND
      OakBoat -> Material.OAK_BOAT

      NMS AbstractBoat has a method #getDropItem
      I've seen a few people make comments it would be nice if Bukkit had something like this for boats.
      I figured it would be nice to have a method in Entity (which for most would just return null, or maybe AIR?!?!?) and other entity classes which have an associated item (ie: armor stands, boats) would return said material.

      I could do a PR for this, but I figured I'd see if its wanted before I put the work into it.
