This change breaks the compiling of gst-libav (
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-libav), I filed
https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/8988 to track this regression.
This is not a regression, it's a bug in gst-libav. These fields are
private and have always been private, applications accessing them are
broken.
Looking at that ticket, it seems gst-libav wants the timestamp for a
given index entry. Unless this can already be achieved in some other
way, it could maybe be implemented cleanly with a new public function
(We have av_index_search_timestamp() to fetch an index from a timestamp
after all).
I also like being able to access the index, it can be used by players
to efficiently offer seeking straight to keyframes (eg. index
entries), which basically requires iterating over the full index and
getting the full information (timestamp, flags at least)

What do you suggest, implement something like what you added to you
LAVFilters fork? I don't know if returning a pointer to a given
AVIndexEntry is ideal. If that were the case, then it wouldn't be an
internal field.
Perhaps something like
int av_index_get_entries_count(AVStream *st);
int av_index_get_timestamp(AVStream *st, int64_t *timestamp, int *flags,
int idx);
Where timestamp and flags are output parameters in the latter,
containing the relevant AVIndexEntry values.
