papi: support old style of providing apidir

77caeb1b193404e76beb27a1aa81321e8eb1cf1f has changed the behavior
in an incompatible way, breaking users (including CSIT).

The new behavior is more pythonic,
but the old behavior has to be supported
at least one release after publicly deprecating it.

Type: fix
