Add the "perllibdir" Makefile variable, which allows the customization
of the Perl library installation path.
The Perl library installation path is currently left entirely to the
Perl Makefile implementation, either MakeMaker (default) or a fixed path
when NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER is enabled. This patch introduces "perllibdir", a
Makefile variable that can override that Perl module installation path.
As with some other Makefile variables, "perllibdir" may be either
absolute or relative. In the latter case, it is treated as relative to
"$(prefix)".
Add some incidental documentation to perl/Makefile.
Explicitly specifying an installation path is necessary for Perl runtime
prefix support, as runtime prefix resolution code must know in advance
where the Perl support modules are installed.
