Add 'min_reqbufs_allocation' field in the vb2_queue structure so drivers
can specify the minimum number of buffers to allocate when calling
VIDIOC_REQBUFS.
When initializing the queue, v4l2 core makes sure that the following
constraints are respected:
- the minimum number of buffers to allocate must be at least 2 because
one buffer is used by the hardware while the other is being processed
by userspace.
-if the driver needs 'min_queued_buffers' in the queue before calling
start_streaming(), then the minimum requirement is 'min_queued_buffers + 1'
to keep at least one buffer available for userspace.
Simplify __vb2_init_fileio() by using 'min_reqbufs_allocation' directly
to avoid duplicating the minimum number of buffers to allocate computation.
