Changes for version 1.5
- implement lzf compression for library files, use "--compress none" to disable.
- new subcommands instdist and insturl.
- switch default mirrors to https.
- add backpan to urrlist by default, so its easier to install older, working, modules such as JSTOWE/TermReadKey-2.33.tar.gz
- configure pushy_https by default, as this extraordinarily stupidly named option apparently breaks urllist completely.
- new hook: postcpanconfig.
- more aggreessively strip consecutive whitespace when using PPI.
- avoid idiotic "Reverse operator" warning when stripping with PPI.
- change default compression for perl tarballs to gzip, as upstream keeps changing compression algorithms and gzip is the only stable one.
- unset some more environment variables to reduce interference.
- implement (partial and so farr undocumented --keepnl mode for ppi stirpping).
- when installing modules, try to install before AND after building perl, to work around a perl bug where it would try to link against both installed and just-built versions of a module, which seems to happen for dual-life moduöes such as Encode.
- slightly more efficient download caching logic.
- fix a signed/unsigned newSVpvn parameter mismatch in the bundle.
