scd:piv: Improve APT parser compatibility.

* scd/app-piv.c (app_select_piv): Allow for full AID.

It appears that SP-800-73-x is not too clear about the format of these
objects. Many current cards (such as the Yubikey 5 series) apparently
have only the PIX in DO 0x4F and only the RID in object 0x79/0x4F.

However, other cards as well as the PivApplet Javacard applet have the
full AID in 0x4F (which actually seems closer to what the standard
says). PivApplet also has the full AID in 0x79/0x4F, but this is
probably incorrect. (Here is a long discussion of the matter from an
OpenSC author:
https://github.com/arekinath/PivApplet/issues/43#issuecomment-772649709)
