Description of the change
The apt maintainers don't want other code poking around in /var/lib/apt/lists/ directly, not least because they might e.g. want to start lz4-compressing the package lists there in the near future. Use the recommended helpers where available to read Packages files for dep-wait analysis. We still need the old paths because these helpers are only available in rather recent versions of apt.

binarypackage. py: Use "apt-get indextargets" and "apt-helper
cat-file" where they exist to read Packages files, rather than looking
in /var/lib/apt/lists/ directly.
