media: mediatek/vcodec: Enable incoherent buffer allocation



Set allow_cache_hints to 1 for the vb2_queue source and destination queues
in the mediatek vcodec V4L2 driver. This allows us to allocate buffers
with the V4L2_MEMORY_FLAG_NON_COHERENT set. On Mediatek SoCs, this enables
caching for this memory, which vastly improves performance when being read
from CPU. Read performance for these buffers is in turn important for
detiling MM21 video frames in userspace software, such as libyuv or
gstreamer.

This change should be safe from race conditions since videobuf2 already
invalidates or flushes the appropriate cache lines in its prepare() and
finish() methods.

Tested on a MT8183 SoC. Resulted in both correct detiling and a 10X
speedup.
