h264_mp4toannexb only inserts SPS/PPS in front of IDR frames

Description
The h264_mp4toannexb bitstream filter currently does not insert the SPS/PPS from the extradata in front of every keyframe, but only in front of IDR frames (at least that's what I observed). This can lead to unplayable files. For this consider a H.264 track whose SPS/PPS are only transmitted out of band and that doesn't have IDR frames, but only I frames with recovery point SEI messages as keyframes. If such a file is remuxed to a transport stream, it doesn't contain any SPS and PPS at all and is therefore undecodeable.
I attach a sample "IDR,I,I,I,IDR.mkv" whose keyframes are (in that order) an IDR frame, three non-IDR I frames and an IDR frame (it also contains non-keyframes). If one cuts the beginning and the end away one gets a file "I,I,I.mkv" whose only keyframes are the three non-IDR I frames.

The check mentioned above was done with the "trace_headers" bitstream filters. I'll attach the logs.
Notice that my findings are based upon the latest Zeranoe build. I hope this to be acceptable.
