WORKAROUND:

Just patch your libunityshell.so (for me, located at 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/compiz/libunityshell.so).
Among symbols of this library find ComputeShapedShadowQuad and change its first 
instruction into "ret" using a  reverse engineering hex editor of your choice. 
DISCLAIMER: I did not check the code there in depth, so I cannot guarantee that 
this solution won't create a memory leak or something else. But for me it did 
fix the problem. 
I actually tried to find source code of DecorationsShape.cpp:73 but failed to 
do so. Unity 7 seems to be abandoned or something, that's really strange 
considering I'm using Ubuntu 20 LTS.
