Notes:
-Issue is described more in depth in this discussion post: [https://discussions.unity.com/t/vulkan-performing-much-worse-than-opengl-es-due-to-excessive-buffer-copies-on-quest-2-3/1561926]
-When MSAA is disabled under the "Camera Rig", fps hovers around 30 and stuttering is gone
-Renderdoc captures are attached "Vulkan2.rdc" and "OpenGLES.rdc"
-Issue reproduces with Vulkan and OpenGLES, on Vulkan fps is lower and the application stutters significantly more than on OpenGLES
-Issue reproduces with both OpenXR and OculusXR Plugins
