Checks whether the player's current location is classified as being a flyable area.

canFly = IsFlyableArea()

As of patch 3.2, this function works properly, returning nil in non-flyable areas of Dalaran and when flying is prohibited in Wintergrasp (during battle I believe).
As of patch 3.3, this function returns 1 in Wintergrasp during battle, while you can't really use your flying mount.
