I filed a bug in the libaom bug tracker to request the removal of this
flag. Afaik it's not even used for VP9 in the libvpx codebase, only VP8.
aom_codec_get_cx_data() can only return a complete TU, which must have a
visible frame, so i don't think it's appropriate for AV1.

Given its name, AOM_FRAME_IS_KEY should only be set if frame_type ==
KEY_FRAME, and not for any other kind of frame type.
Knowing that the visible frame is not of type KEY_FRAME alone does not
guarantee that it's an inter frame, so setting pict_type to
AV_PICTURE_TYPE_P in that case is just not correct (I know INTRA_ONLY
frames are rare, but we shouldn't risk reporting an intra frame as inter).
A new AOM_FRAME_IS_INTRA flag set to the derived value "FrameIsIntra"
defined in the Uncompressed Header from the spec, or a new "type" field
in aom_codec_cx_pkt_t.data.frame would probably be enough to solve this.
