media: nxp: imx8-isi: Reduce minimum queued buffers from 2 to 0

Fix a hang issue when capturing a single frame with applications like cam
in libcamera. It would hang waiting for the driver to complete the buffer,
but streaming never starts because min_queued_buffers was set to 2.

The ISI module uses a ping-pong buffer mechanism that requires two buffers
to be programmed at all times. However, when fewer than 2 user buffers are
available, the driver use internal discard buffers to fill the remaining
slot(s). Reduce minimum queued buffers from 2 to 0 allows streaming to
start without any queued buffers.
