ipa: rpi: common: Handle AEC/AGC flicker controls

We handle the flicker modes by passing the correct period to the
AEC/AGC algorithm which already contains the necessary code.

The "Auto" mode, as well as reporting the detected flicker period via
the "AeFlickerDetected" metadata, are unsupported for now.
