Upgrade local::lib

Scripts for upgrading all Perl modules installed by local::lib. Unfortunately this somewhat kludgy solution is necessary because there is no simple command to upgrade everything installed by local::lib.

Start the process by running run.sh whilst logged in as the user whose local::lib modules you want to upgrade.

WARNING: These scripts are not atomic or transactional, if the process fails or is aborted you will have to recover manually using the following commands:

rm -rf $HOME/perl5
mv $HOME/perl5.backup $HOME/perl5

The upgrade process can also take a long time to run and your local::lib installation will be unavailable for the entire period.
