Create and Use a local Library Directory for Perl Modules

Edit Package perl-local-lib
https://metacpan.org/release/local-lib

This module provides a quick, convenient way of bootstrapping a user-local Perl module library located within the user's home directory. It also constructs and prints out for the user the list of environment variables using the syntax appropriate for the user's current shell (as specified by the SHELL environment variable), suitable for directly adding to one's shell configuration file.

More generally, local::lib allows for the bootstrapping and usage of a directory containing Perl modules outside of Perl's @INC. This makes it easier to ship an application with an app-specific copy of a Perl module, or collection of modules. Useful in cases like when an upstream maintainer hasn't applied a patch to a module of theirs that you need for your application.

   - fix shell quoting for fish shell
   - work around issue where some cpanm versions wouldn't upgrade
     ExtUtils::MakeMaker in some cases it should have
   - added --quiet option to surpress directory creation message

     environment_vars_string_for options will always include directories being
     added, even if they were already in current ENV vars
   - fixes for author tests
   - create directory structure under created local::libs, ensuring arch dirs
