Rework the perl fallback functionality The module with_fallback.pm was kind of clunky and required a transfer module. This change replaces if with a much more generic pragma type module, which simply appends given directories to @INC (as opposed to the 'lib' pragma, which prepends the directories to @INC). This also supports having a file MODULES.txt with sub-directories to modules. This ensures that we don't have to spray individual module paths throughout our perl code, but can have them collected in one place. (do note that there is a 'fallback' module on CPAN. However, it isn't part of the core perl, and it has no support the any MODULES.txt kind of construct) Reviewed-by: Matt Caswell <matt@openssl.org> (Merged from https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/9826)
