The viewing distance of the player, depends on the viewing distance of the server.

[Levakiv]

Describe the bug

Player view distance depends on the view distance set on the server, not the client's settings.

To Reproduce

1. chnage "view-distance" in server.properties.
2. Join server with any render distance
3. after login use spigot Player#getClientViewDistance()
4. See that getClientViewDistance returned a value that does not match the player's viewing distance.
5. Change the viewing distance on the client side
6. after login use spigot [Player#getClientViewDistance()]
7. See that getClientViewDistance returned the same value as in step 3
8. Change the value in "view-distance" in server.properties to another
9. Restart server
10. Join server with any render distance
11. after login use spigot Player#getClientViewDistance()
12. See what value to change with the change in viewing distance on the server

Expected behaviour

The viewing distance depends on the player's viewing distance setting.
