That second one never worked.

In fact the right options did not work either, due to

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1607283

- this was fixed in stretch so that the options are actually
respected (previously only options in apt.conf files were
respected).

No, it's always:
Dir::Etc::trusted "trusted.gpg";
Dir::Etc::trustedparts "trusted.gpg.d";

/f and /d are just annotations for interpreting the option when
reading it via apt-config, and APT::GPGV::TrustedKeyring is the
old name of Dir::Etc::trusted.
