Portal overlay does not show when changing dimensions due to respawning after death

- Travel to the nether/end
- Die
/kill
- Respawn
Observed Behavior:
The nether portal overlay is not shown. Instead, the game's panorama will be shown.
Expected Result:
The respective end or nether portal overlay would be shown, because the player is changing the dimension they're in, despite not directly entering a portal to do so.
