Ignore inactive cameras (#10543)
# Objective

Currently, if a large amount of inactive cameras are spawned, they will
immensely slow down performance.

This can be reproduced by adding

```rust
    let default_image = images.add(default());
    for _ in 0..10000 {
        commands.spawn(Camera3dBundle {
            camera: Camera {
                is_active: false,
                target: RenderTarget::Image(default_image.clone()),
                ..default()
            },
            ..default()
        });
    }
```

to for example `3d_shapes`.

Using `tracy`, it's clear that preparing view bind groups for all
cameras is still happening.
Also, visibility checks on the extracted views from inactive cameras
also take place.

## Performance gains

The following `tracy` comparisons show the effect of skipping this
unneeded work.
Yellow is Bevy main, red is with the fix.

### Visibility checks

## Solution

- Check if the cameras are inactive in the appropriate places, and if so
skip them

## Changelog

### Changed

- Do not extract views from inactive cameras or check visiblity from
their extracted views
