VR: Avoid drawing the overlay Texture when it's empty.

The fallback Android UI path incurs a significant overhead cost to our
rendering pipeline when it's active, which used to be 100% of the time.

This CL uses a dummy canvas that extends the Android canvas and throws
an exception every time something is drawn to it to know whether or not
drawing the view tree was a no-op. If not a no-op, it actually draws
the view tree into our texture-backed canvas.

If the canvas is empty, then we can skip compositing it in our VR
rendering pipeline.
