drm/vc4: Fix HDMI mode validation
Current mode validation impedes setting up some video modes which should be supported otherwise. Namely 1920x1200@60Hz. Fix this by lowering the minimum HDMI state machine clock to pixel clock ratio allowed. Fixes: 32e823c63e90 ("drm/vc4: Reject HDMI modes with too high of clocks.")

+ * Real life tests reveal that vc4's firmware statement holds up, and
+ * users are able to use pixel clocks closer to HSM's, namely for
+ * 1920x1200@60Hz. So it was decided to have leave a 1% margin between
+ * both clocks. Which, for RPi0-3 implies a maximum pixel clock of
