pipeline: raspberrypi: Fix the buffer count calculation for the ISP input stream

The ISP input stream currently only allocates a single slot in the
V4L2VideoDevice cache as it follows the number of buffers allocated for use.
However, this is wrong as the ISP input stream imports buffers from Unicam
image stream.  As a consequence of this, only one cache slot was used during
runtime for the ISP input stream, and if multiple buffers were to be queued
simultaneously, the queue operation would return a failure.

Fix this by passing the same number of RAW buffers available from the Unicam
image stream. Additionally, double this count in the cases where buffers could
be allocated externally from the application.
