Reproducible with: 2018.3.4f1, 2019.1.0b1, 2019.2.0a3

Project crashes on loading: 2017.4.18f1

Notes:

* Right-clicking on the project window and selecting "Reimport all" fixes the issue temporary but more users are getting this.

* The user has added that the same issue happens with BC7 compressed textures are not supported when publishing to iPhone

*A similar issue was fixed a while ago, but with DXT1 compressed textures:

    Reimporting the texture works for me (right click on the texture - Reimport)

    I'm now running into this randomly and suddenly... I've tried every solution provided over the years and none of them work.

    I am getting both the 'DTX1' and 'DTX5' versions of this bug with Unity 2018.4.8f1 in a project with an iOS build target. Prior to today I have never had these errors.
