A common problem in uss_qualifier is developers providing a single ParticipantID rather than a list of ParticipantIDs when initiating a check. Since a ParticipantID is a string and a string is actually a list (of characters), this problem often goes unnoticed and participants are attributed as "u", "s", "s", and "1". This is currently a problem both in an active PR and a PR that was merged (was not caught in review).
This PR fixes that problem by allowing either a single ParticipantID or a list of ParticipantIDs to be provided, and treats either correctly. It also does the same for requirements where the same problem sometimes occurs.
