Oh! This is new. I'm not convinced that avoiding bundled Module::Install is the
way to go here. The packaged inc::Module::Install even states
# This module ONLY loads if the user has manually installed their own
# installation of Module::Install, and are some form of MI author.

The additional dependencies under inc/ are either optional (e.g. YAML::Tiny for
writing MYMETA.yml which we don't need) or already pulled in by EU::MM. Since
Module::Install is intended to work with nothing more than core perl installed,
I don't see any reason to explicitly mention dependencies unless there's an
unbundled core module missing that causes build failure.
