NametagsMixin hooked EntityRenderer.renderLabelIfPresent with a
VertexConsumerProvider, which 1.21.9 moved to the render command queue, so
custom nametags only worked before 1.21.9 (#30).
LivingEntityRendererMixin already captures health and entity type at the
end of LivingEntityRenderer.updateRenderState. It now also applies
NametagsMod's replacement to state.displayName there, the label the
renderer draws later. This works the same on every version, so
NametagsMixin and its features.mixins.json entry are gone.
As before, only entities that already show a label get a replacement. For
players, the role icon is added after this (PlayerEntityRendererMixin), so
it now comes before the replaced name and keeps its colour, instead of
being folded into the replacement text.
