[OpenGL] Using Models with Blend Shapes causes the Skinning to happen on the CPU instead of the GPU
To reproduce:
1. Download attached project "blend-shapes.zip" and open in Unity
2. Open "SampleScene" scene
3. Make sure the current target is Standalone
4. Set Graphics API to OpenGLCore, OpenGLES2 or OpenGLES3
5. Make sure GPU Skinning is enabled in PlayerSettings
6. Open Unity Profiler
7. Enter to Play Mode
8. Record a few frames, then Pause/Stop PlayMode
9. In the CPU Profiler, click on a frame
10. Switch to Timeline view
Expected results: MeshSkinning.Skin marker should not be visible in the Worker Threads when analyzing the frame in the Profiler Timeline
Actual results: MeshSkinning.Skin is executed by Worker threads
Notes:
- This issue only appears on OpenGLCore, OpenGLES2, and OpenGLES3 Graphics API
- The Correct behavior would be if You see on Profiler MeshSkinning.SkinOnGPU
- The Project is attached in the Comments section
Reproduced on Unity 2017.4.0f1, 2017.4.23f1, 2018.3.8f1, 2019.1.0b6 and 2019.2.0a7

- Volumetric fog shader variants are missing from build when "Strict Shader Variant Matching" is disabled
- Unnecessary modifications clutter the Scene when using a RectTransform driven by a LayoutGroup in a Prefab
Resolution Note:
GPU skinning only works on GLES3. But Android GLES3 GPU Skinning is disabled due to driver instability.
