Fix Mesh allocator bug and reduce Mesh data copies by two (#15566)

# Objective

- First step towards #15558

## Solution

- Rename `get_vertex_buffer_data` to `create_packed_vertex_buffer_data`
to make it clear that it is not "free" and actually allocates
- Compute length analytically for preallocation instead of creating the
buffer to get its length and immediately discard it
- Use existing vertex attribute size calculation method to reduce code
duplication
- Fix a bug where mesh index data was being replaced by unnecessarily
newly created mesh vertex data in some cases
- Overall reduces mesh copies by two. We still have plenty to go, but
these were the easy ones.

## Testing

- I ran 3d_scene, lighting, and many_cubes, they look fine.
- Benchmarks would be nice, but this is very obviously a win in perf and
correctness.

---

## Migration Guide

- `Mesh::create_packed_vertex_buffer_data` has been renamed
`Mesh::create_packed_vertex_buffer_data` to reflect the fact that it
copies data and allocates.

## Showcase

- look mom, less copies
