#16887: ULTIMA8: Classic jump mode goes through walls

 Disabling the "Enable jump to mouse position" option to go back to
 classic/original direction distance jumping allows the Avatar to jump
 through walls and ceilings.

 I prefer the original style jumping and have been playing with the target
 jumping disabled.

 Steps to reproduce:
 Walk up to any wall (any vertical solid like walls, fences, trees) and
 just keep attempting to jump forward. Each time you seem to move a bit
 further in until you can just jump right through on 2nd or 3rd attempt.
 Jumping South East seems even easier to get through. Doesn't matter if you
 use the mouse buttons or space bar jumping.

 I have reproduced this on macOS (Tahoe 26.3.1 on MBP M2 Pro) and Android
 (16.0 on Pixel 9 Pro Fold) using the GoG version of Ultima 8.
