[Android] "Adding null Transform to TransformAccessArray will result in degraded performance" warnings printed when loading and unloading scenes with 2D animated characters
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the attached user's project "NullTransform2DAnimBug.zip"
2. Build and Run for Android
3. Press "[Swim]" to confirm that the first 2D animated fish will swim
4. Press the Toggle and then Scene buttons to load a second scene with a second animating character. You can tap the screen to set this fish's target point
5. After toggling the second character scene a couple times, you will notice warnings reported by the Jobs system about the 2D animation system code using the TransformAccessArray improperly
Expected Results: You should be able to load and unload scenes with 2D animated characters and not get this warning
Actual Results: The multiple warnings will now be output to Android logcat when either fish becomes visible in the scene

Additional info, this was introduced in 6000.0.47, specifically through this bug fix.
https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/issues/transformaccessarray-dot-add-behaves-differently-when-the-argument-is-null-and-the-argument-is-an-int
That was a big change for an LTS release. Makes anything after 0.46 unusable for us.
Creates issues with some of unity's own tools, but also with a lot of 3rd party assets.

I believe this warning was added without regard to how Unity's own 2D animation system uses null items in the TransformAccessArray. These null entries are left when the animation system is restarted after a scene unload.
