[WebGL] AudioSource.Update CPU usage increases overtime when playing AudioSources on Chromium browsers
Reproduction steps:
1. Open the user's attached project
2. Make a WebGL Development Build with Autoconnect Profiler enabled and run it
3. Inspect the CPU usage of "AudioSource.Update" method
4. Let the build run in browser for ~5-10mins (it can be muted)
5. Inspect the CPU usage of "AudioSource.Update" method again
Expected result: CPU usage remains relatively the same
Actual result: CPU usage increases several times (from ~0.3ms to ~3ms and more)
Reproducible with: 2018.4.26f1, 2019.4.9f1, 2020.1.4f1, 2020.2.0a21
Reproducible with Chrome (84.0.4147.135), Edge (84.0.522.63)
Does not reproduce on Firefox (79.0)
Notes:
1. Stopping and then resuming playing audio tracks do not decrease CPU usage
2. In Chrome's profiler, "_JS_Sound_SetPosition" function shows up a lot
3. On 2020.2.0a21, audio tracks cannot be heard, and Audio Voices count increases rapidly in the Profiler. After a few seconds "Autoconnected Player Ran out of virtual channels. Audio clip "pistol - Copy" will not be played." warnings start to be thrown repeatedly

Is there an ETA for this fix coming to 2019.4.X? The latest Chromium update has made this issue far more prevalent and live titles (Betrayal IO, for example) are unplayable after an hour due to this bug.

Resolution Note (fix version 2021.1):
Root cause turned out to be a performance bug in Chrome, but there is a local workaround we can apply. For more information, check out https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1133233.
