[PATCH] Turn on strictures for some installer Perl modules

[Tim Retout]

Hi,

I'd like to try to clean up some of the code in the solenv Perl
modules - as a first task, I want to turn on 'use strict', which I'd
consider a bare minimum for maintainable Perl.  Longer-term,
Perl::Critic flags up lots of nice stuff, and then there's performance
and so on.

My first few attempts at this have ended up ballooning into large
tasks - for instance, there seem to be lots of unused subroutines in
the installer code, which could safely be removed.  But I then end up
not sending in any patches, and have no idea if I'm going way beyond
what's acceptable. :)

So here's a first small patch that should be quite safe.

One thing I'd like to check: is the best way to test make_installer.pl to run:

  source config_host.mk
  solenv/bin/ooinstall /tmp/foo

(I get a few errors when sourcing config_host.mk.)

I've added my name to
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Developers with a link
to my previous license statement on the mailing list.

Kind regards,
