I don't know if x264 supports it (and I wanted to ask)
but h264 reference frames can be older than the last
I-frame (but not older than the last IDR-frame).

Currently, when forcing an I frame, via API, or via the ffmpeg cli,
using -force_key_frames, we still let x264 decide what sort of
keyframe to user. In some cases, it is useful to be able to force
an IDR frame, e.g. for cutting streams.
