afb-api-so-v3: Keep root API in all cases
For bindings v3, it is possible to have no explicit default root API. In that case, the binder creates a fake API that references the binding itself. That api isn't callable be it allows to emit messages, to catch events and to call services (other apis). It must be kept to ensure that there is no further error in the hypothetical case where it is used.
