[#SPIGOT-4046] targetting @e not possible from datapack function

Targetting @e directly from a function run via #minecraft:tick does not appear to work in spigot, but does in vanilla.

function with the following commands in:

execute as @a run say I'm a player
execute as @p run say I'm a close player
execute as @e run say I'm an entity
execute as @r run say I'm random
execute as @s run say I'm a tick!

Will output something like the following in spigot

[18:55:28] [Server thread/INFO]: [Zedwick] I'm a player
[18:55:28] [Server thread/INFO]: [Dax23333] I'm a player
[18:55:28] [Server thread/INFO]: [Dax23333] I'm a close player
[18:55:28] [Server thread/INFO]: [Zedwick] I'm random

and something like the following in vanilla (singleplayer)

[18:02:31] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Zedwick] I'm a player
[18:02:31] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Zedwick] I'm a close player
[18:02:31] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Bat] I'm an entity
[18:02:31] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Creeper] I'm an entity
[18:02:31] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Bat] I'm an entity
[18:02:31] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Zombie] I'm an entity
[18:02:31] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Zombie] I'm an entity
[18:02:31] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Creeper] I'm an entity
[18:02:31] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Skeleton] I'm an entity
[18:02:31] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] [Zedwick] I'm random

if the function or commands are ran by a player in chat, or in a command block, in spigot/vanilla it will output as expected in the vanilla sample above (with the addition of the running player saying "I'm a tick!")

Test datapack provided, will spam chat with output as it is set to run on minecraft:tick.
