avcodec/nvenc: unify CBR filler data insertion for all codecs

Previously, AV1 used filler data with CBR by default while H.264
and HEVC may or may not depending on driver version. Make this
consistent by using not filler data in CBR mode for all codecs.

Since there are valid reasons to use CBR with or without filler,
also add a cbr_padding option to allow users to override this.
