This allows callers with avio write callbacks to get the bytestream
positions that correspond to keyframes, suitable for live streaming.
In the simplest form, a caller could expect that a header is written
to the bytestream during the avformat_write_header, and the data
output to the avio context during e.g. av_write_frame corresponds
exactly to the current packet passed in.
When combined with av_interleaved_write_frame, and with muxers that
do buffering (most muxers that do some sort of fragmenting or
clustering), the mapping from input data to bytestream positions
is nontrivial.
This allows callers to get directly information about what part
of the bytestream is what, without having to resort to assumptions
about the muxer behaviour.
One keyframe/fragment/block can still be split into multiple (if
they are larger than the aviocontext buffer), which would call
the callback with e.g. AVIO_DATA_MARKER_SYNC_POINT, followed by
AVIO_DATA_MARKER_UNKNOWN for the second time it is called with
the following data.

Note to maintainers: update tools
Note to maintainers: set a default whitelist for your protocol
If that makes no sense then consider to set "none" and thus require the user to specify a white-list
for sub-protocols to be opened
Note, testing and checking for missing changes is needed

This isn't used in practice anywhere within libav at the moment,
but change it for consistency until it is removed.
URL_RDONLY/WRONLY were fixed in commit 5b81e29593 (after the
values that actually were used were changed at the major bump,
in commit cbea3ac8), but this flag was unintentionally left unfixed.
