[PATCH v2 1/2] libipa: FCQueue: Make sure FrameContext#0 is initialized

Some IPA modules, like the RkISP1 one, call FCQueue::get(0) at
IPA::start() time, before any frame context has been allocated with
FCQueue::alloc() called at queueRequest() time.

The FCQueue implementation aims to detect when a FrameContext is get()
before it is alloc()-ated, Warns about it, and initializes the
FrameContext before returning it.

In case of frame#0, a get() preceding an alloc() call is not detected
as the "frame == frameContext.frame" test returns success, as
FrameContexts are zeroed by default.

As a result, the first returned FrameContext is not initialized.

Explicitly test for frame#0 to make sure the FrameContext is initialized
if get(0) is called before alloc(0). To avoid re-initializing a frame
context, in case alloc() has been called correctly before get(),
introduce an "initialised" state variable that tracks the FrameContext
initialisation state.
