[oe] [meta-perl][PATCH v2 01/10] libmodule-metadata-perl: add 1.000019

[Tim Orling]

--Turns out to not be quite so simple. Module::Metadata is not ever being
created by perl_*.bb. This is somewhat surprising because Module::Build
needs Module::Metadata and this has been missed in
Cross/configure.sh-arm-linux since perl v5.13.9.
--You can verify this by running "perl -mModule::Build" on qemuarm/arm
target.
--I am working on a patch for oe-core.
