[PATCH] media: chips-media: wave5: Account for sizeimage 0 case

V4L2 uAPI states that sizeimage can be set to 0 in struct
v4l2_pix_format_mplane if client wants the driver to configure a proper
sizeimage. If client leaves this field unset and configures an encode with
high bitrate, low QP, or any other parameters resulting in high quality
encode, then the driver-calculated bitstream buffer size (MIN_BS_SIZE) will
be too small resulting in undetermined behavior.

Current DEFAULT_BS_SIZE is just a placeholder value - I can lower if
required so memory consumption doesn't go up drastically if sizeimage is
set 0 by user. I saw this was the common equation in rockchip and hantro
driver.
