Add PerlLicense crawler that could look for license file on Metacpan filelist #70

Some, specially older, Perl packages have no license information, but if you look into their file directory, there usually exists license file. Quite many of them are using a name Artistic;

Also research how those old packages refer to dependencies;

Here's example for Curses: https://metacpan.org/source/GIRAFFED/Curses-1.36
