[Buildroot] [PATCH/next v3 5/8] support/testing: add perl-libwww-perl test

[Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@bootlin.com>]

Hello Fran?ois,

Thanks a lot for this work on adding tests for Perl packages. It is
really great to see the testing infrastructure being used more widely.
A few questions below.

Sorry if I haven't followed the previous discussion, but why do we have
this docstring ? Is it just for information ?

Why are you testing specifically those modules ? What is the rule to
decide what modules are tested here ?

Thanks!
