Unfortunately, Debian ships old Python (3.5 vs 3.8) and old pyscard
(1.9.4 vs 1.9.9). Calling PCSCCardConnection.disconnect() from a
destructor causes warnings about ignored exceptions:
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'disconnect'
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'setChanged'
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'SCardDisconnect'
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable
All these exceptions happen in pyscard's own destructors.

From pyscard user's guide [1]:
== Selecting the card communication protocol ==
By defaults, the connect() method of the CardConnection object
will try to connect using either the T=0 or T=1 protocol.
To force a connection protocol, you can pass the required
protocol to the connect() method.
This means that a PC/SC ifd handler may automatically choose T=1
as the highest protocol if the card indicates both in its ATR [2].
Since pySim only supports T=0, let's select it explicitly.
