[2D][URP] ShadowCaster2D generates about 1.8 KB of Garbage every frame in the Editor
How to reproduce:
1. Open the attached project named "Case_1304158"
2. Open the SampleScene
3. Open the Profiler Window and Enter Play mode
4. In the CPU section, search for PlayerLoop -> Update.ScriptRunBehaviorUpdate -> BehaviorUpdate -> ShadowCaster2D.Update()
5. Observe the GC Alloc statistics
Expected results: ShadowCaster2D does not generate garbage every frame
Actual results: Each ShadowCaster2D object in the Scene generates roughly 1.8 KB of garbage every frame
Reproducible with: 7.5.2(2019.4.19f1), 10.2.2(2020.2.3f1), 11.0.0(2021.1.0b3), 12.0.0(2020.2.0a3)
Could not test with: 2018.4(URP was in early preview stage)
Notes:
1. Does not reproduce in the Build. Attaching a profiler to the Build shows 0 B of garbage generated by ShadowCaster2D.Update()

Will this fix be backported to 2020 LTS release?

In the update function of ShadowCaster2D.cs, the first line is:
Renderer renderer = GetComponent<Renderer>();Surely that's a huge problem?

Got this problem too for over a year i'm trying to find a solution. All my shadowcaster2d are creating at least 1.3kb of GC each. I've seen it in editor mostly but seeing the freeze i get when the shadowcaster get enabled in webgl build make me think it happen there too.
Also by disabling/enabling the component in runtime i cumulativly get more batching, to a point the game will crash.
It need a big look up in general.
