Core/Movement: various improvements for creature knockbacks

* creature knockbacks will no longer generate a full path but instead only use a destination point to reflect sniff data
* calculate the destination by using a mmap raycast instead of using a mmap path which had the chance of creating weird movements when GetNearPosition failed to get a proper collision point (knocking arround a tree for example or just somewhere it should not go at all)
