Core/Unit: Erm, so it turns out that releasing your spirit actually never set your death state to DEAD. It stayed as CORPSE. That's wrong, of course, but we didn't notice because zombie corpses (see f50a8e5).

Zombie corpses are gone, so now it caused a bug. That's fixed too. Closes #21873. (Finally.)
