FS#1436 - [battle pets] Battle pet XP gained from battles is way too low

https://warcraft.wiki.gg/wiki/Pet_Battle_System#Experience

I've fought a lvl 5 frog with my lvl 5 raven. My team had 3 pets on it, all lvl 5, but only the raven participated, so the other 2 pets shouldn't be getting any XP in this case (and they indeed didn't get any XP, so the issue isn't caused by XP being split). Defeating the frog awarded my raven 23 XP. This is way too little - based on the formula on the provided website, it should have gained (5 + 9) * (5 - 5 + 5) * 1 = 14 * 5 = 70 XP. Of course, in a more complex battle situation the formula alone isn't enough to calculate XP for each pet correctly, so please refer to the provided website (and possibly other sources) for more detailed info on the XP calculation in specific scenarios.

I'll do more testing on the battle pet system once this pet XP issue is fixed because right now levelling battle pets is painfully slow.
