[iOS] Unity consumes more memory when allocating meshes starting from 2018.1.0b1
To reproduce:
1. Open attached project "MemTest.zip"
2. Build for iOS
3. Deploy the Xcode project to the iOS device
Expected result: in the newer Unity versions the mesh count is the same as in the older versions of Unity
Actual result: the mesh count is lower than on older versions of Unity

Resolution Note (2018.3.X):
The rise in reported memory consumption is mostly due to an iOS memory under-reporting issue that Apple fixed.
Regarding the 2% to 5% decrease in mesh count, it was conscious trade-off to introduce one additional mapping field in order to considerably speed up the lookup time to find objects of a given type in large projects and scenes with large object counts.
