va: Blocklist i965 driver for encoding

The driver - AKA intel-vaapi-driver - has been unmaintained for four years
now and encoding appears to be broken in various cases. As it's unlikely
that the situation will improve, blocklist the driver for encoding.
Decoding appears to be stable enough to keep it enabled.

The driver can still be used by setting the `GST_VA_ALL_DRIVERS` env
variable.
