MC-121823Using "destroy" command on containers does not drop stored contents
The bug
When using /setblock x y z air destroy on a container (chest, dropper, etc) with items inside, the container is broken and dropped but the contents disappear completely.
I distinctly recall the contents dropping in 17w43b, and I'm pretty sure it worked in 1.12 as well.
How to reproduce
Put down a chest, shove some stuff in there, and target it with a /setblock destroy command. The chest drops, but the stuff inside is gone.
Workaround
As of 17w46a, it now works fine with /fill, but not with /setblock.

In 18w11a it says "Could not set the block" and breaks the block under the chest, dropping an item of the block below.
Are you sure you had the right coordinates?
Oops, my bad. Retested with the correct coordinates, still affects 18w11a.
