[PATCH] lib.pm should not warn about loading .par files

G'day p5p,

When PAR has been loaded, .par files in @INC will be searches for modules. 
one of the recommended interfaces for doing this is:

	use PAR;
	use lib 'example.par';

This works just fine, but 'lib' emits a warning that it should only be used 
with directories, not files, and then adds example.par to @INC anyway.

Anyone trying to add a file ending with .par into @INC probably knows what 
they're doing, so the trivial patch attached disables the warnings for .par 
files.

Cheerio,

	Paul
