Just to explain the context. The original API was made in a way that any
simple webserver with file serving support could be used as a valid
package registry. The REST API is newer and has a broader scope.
For any tool that wants to be as compatible as possible with registries
other than code.dlang.org, using the original API would be the better
choice. If that's not a concern, using the /api/* endpoints is just as
good and offers some more possibilities.
