media: vb2: use ssize_t for vb2_read/vb2_write

vb2_read() and vb2_write() return size_t, but propagate
negative errno values from __vb2_perform_fileio().

This relies on implicit signed/unsigned conversions in callers
(e.g. vb2_fop_read()) to recover error codes:

    __vb2_perform_fileio() -> -EINVAL
    vb2_read()             -> (size_t)-EINVAL
    vb2_fop_read()         -> -EINVAL

This relies on implicit conversions that are not obvious.

These helpers are exported (EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL) and part of the
vb2 API, so changing their return type may affect existing users.

However, they conceptually follow read/write semantics, where
ssize_t is typically used to return either a byte count or a
negative error code.

Switch vb2_read() and vb2_write() to ssize_t, and update
__vb2_perform_fileio() accordingly.
