drm/amd/display: Increase block_sequence array size
[Why]
It's possible to generate more than 50 steps in hwss_build_fast_sequence,
for example with a 6-pipe asic where all pipes are in one MPC chain. This
overflows the block_sequence buffer and corrupts block_sequence_steps,
causing a crash.
[How]
Expand block_sequence to 100 items. A naive upper bound on the possible
number of steps for a 6-pipe asic, ignoring the potential for steps to be
mutually exclusive, is 91 with current code, therefore 100 is sufficient.
