There apparently is no reason to require 3 queued buffers for RkISP1,
as the driver operates with a scratch buffer where data can be
directed to if there's no available buffer provided by userspace.

Reduce the number of required buffers to 0 by removing the
initialization of min_queued_buffers, to allow applications to operate
by queueing capture buffers on-demand.

Tested with libcamera, by operating with a single capture request. The
same request (and the associated capture buffer) gets recycled once
completed. This of course causes a frame rate drop but doesn't hinder
operations.

v2->v3:
- Remove min_queued_buffers initialization

v1->v2:
The first version of this patch set min_queued_buffers to 1, but setting it
to 0 doesn't compromise operations and it's even better as it allows application
to queue buffers to the capture devices on-demand. If a buffer is not provided
to the DMA engines, image data gets directed to the driver's internal scratch
buffer.
