SpriteMask data is ignored in Sprite when drawing with CommandBuffer.DrawMesh to a RenderTexture
How to reproduce:
1. Open the user's attached "DrawMask.zip" project
2. Open the "SampleScene" Scene
3. Enter Play Mode
4. Observe the Sprite on the right in the Game view
Expected result: Both left and right Sprites have a cutout area in the center
Actual result: Only the left Sprite has the cutout area
Reproducible with: 2018.4.32f1, 2019.4.22f1, 2020.3.1f1, 2021.1.0f1, 2021.2.0a9

This is an issue I have come across. I am trying to use a render texture to capture a section of a sprite using a sprite mask to set the size and shape of the render texture output. As the render texture output has no sprite mask info the output is nothing. The render texture works fine with sprites not interacting with sprite masks. As stated above this is not a bug but an unsupported feature. I would really like to see this feature supported as it would allow for the use of sprite masks to select from large sprites out of the way of the main camera in the scene, without having overlapping sprite masks messing each other up.

Resolution Note:
This isn't a bug and is feature that isn't supported at the moment. The function CommandBuffer.DrawMesh is working as intended as it adds the specified mesh with the material to be drawn. The stencil setup required for sprite mask is handled internally and is not exposed in the scripting api. I've added it to our backlogs as a new feature request.
