Description
## Environment
- Android OS version: 13, 14
- Devices affected: One Plus Nord CE 2 Lite, Nothing Phone 1, etc.
- Maps SDK Version: 11.8.1
## Observed behavior and steps to reproduce
Recently we updated to latest Mapbox Version 11.8.1 from version 10.18.2, in our testing we are facing issue that the pins flicker while zooming out the map, while when zooming in the issue does not happen. This has started happening after updating the Mapbox SDK. I have attached the video for reference.

## Expected behavior
The behavior should be that it should not flicker when user is zooming out like in the previous version

Research direction
Start by reproducing the flicker on Android 13 or 14 with Maps SDK 11.8.1 while zooming out, then compare the behavior with version 10.18.2. The issue is done when symbol-layer pins remain stable during zooming out as well as zooming in.
