Short description of error

A rigid body simulation does not bake to completion when the frame_change_pre handler is used to create and then immediately remove a mesh data object. The simulation only bakes the first two frames and then stops.

Here is a short script that reproduces the issue:

import bpy

def frame_change_pre(scene):    
    new_mesh_data = bpy.data.meshes.new("mesh_name")
    bpy.data.meshes.remove(new_mesh_data)
    
bpy.app.handlers.frame_change_pre.append(frame_change_pre)

I have also reported another issue related to unexpected behavior when using the frame_change_pre handler here: T60094

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

I have attached a .blend file that includes the script to reproduce this issue.

To reproduce:

1. Open the .blend file
2. Press 'Run Script'
3. Playback animation or attempt to bake the rigid body cache

To reproduce from a new .blend file:

1. Add default cube as a rigid body object
2. Run the script
3. Playback animation or attempt to bake the rigid body cache
