[Android][Vulkan] GPU instancing performance loss on some Adreno devices when compared to OpenGLES3
How to reproduce:
1. Open the attached project "InstancingTest.zip"
2. Check if Vulkan is selected as a Graphics API (Edit > Project Settings... > Player)
3. Build and Run the project to an Android device
Expected result: The performance of GPU instancing is the same or better when using Vulkan as a Graphics API instead of OpenGLES3
Actual result: The performance of GPU instancing is significantly worse when using Vulkan as a Graphics API instead of OpenGLES3
Reproducible with: 2018.4.30f1, 2019.4.16f1, 2020.1.15f1, 2020.2.0b14, 2021.1.0a8

Resolution Note (2021.1.X):
This issue is caused by too many data being sent to the GPUs inside vertex shader. In the project it was caused by animations of the bones, vertex + bone data on animated objects were causing a bottleneck. Newer versions of Vulkan driver do not have this issue.
