Log Message:
-----------
Tidy up and refactor plperl.c.

- Changed MULTIPLICITY check from runtime to compiletime.
    No loads the large Config module.
- Changed plperl_init_interp() to return new interp
    and not alter the global interp_state
- Moved plperl_safe_init() call into check_interp().
- Removed plperl_safe_init_done state variable
    as interp_state now covers that role.
- Changed plperl_create_sub() to take a plperl_proc_desc argument.
- Simplified return value handling in plperl_create_sub.
- Changed perl.com link in the docs to perl.org and tweaked
    wording to clarify that require, not use, is what's blocked.
- Moved perl code in large multi-line C string literal macros
    out to plc_*.pl files.
- Added a test2macro.pl utility to convert the plc_*.pl files to
    macros in a perlchunks.h file which is #included
- Simplifed plperl_safe_init() slightly
- Optimized pg_verifymbstr calls to avoid unneeded strlen()s.

Patch from Tim Bunce, with minor editing from me.
