[OE-core] how to add new perl modules to stock OE build?

  ack ... never mind, i see my fundamental misunderstanding. i thought
all of the recipes being processed via the "perl-modules" package were
being (if necessary) downloaded from CPAN, or something like that,
then turned into installable rpms. i didn't look closely enough into
the perl source to see that all the modules listed in
"perl-rdepends_5.22.1.inc" are already in the perl source tree.

  so i'm back to my original question -- what is the proper way to add
arbitrary perl modules to an image? if someone has a simple example of
how it's done, that'd be great. as proof-of-concept, i'd like to add
the Text::Template module to my "qemuppc" target.

  thoughts? sorry for all the earlier noise, i thought i had it
figured out but ... no.
