TexturesVertex._num_verts_per_mesh deep copy (#623)

Summary:
When a list of Meshes is `join_batched()`, the `num_verts_per_mesh` in the list would be unexpectedly modified.

Also some cleanup around `_num_verts_per_mesh`.

Pull Request resolved: #623

Test Plan: A modification to an existing test checks this.
