branches in Perl/perl5.git

Porters,

Last week I emailed about cleaning up stale branches in the primary GitHub
repo.  A number of you did so.  Thanks!  I know it's sort of boring, but it
does make things a bit easier to scan, understand, and manage.

Today, I made a second run through the big list.  Among other improvements, I
added detection for branches that had been merged under a different commit.
This happened, for example, when a branch was pushed to github/jdoe/feature as
commit 012345 but then merged after being rebased and becoming commit ABCDEF.
This helped identify quite a few branches that could be deleted without
controversy.

Once again, below you'll all the branches currently in the Perl/perl5.git repo,
excluding blead, maint branches, and smoke-me branches.  They're organized by
the committer of the head commit and by date.  Please have a look at these and
see what you know you can clean up.

My plan is now, on or after July 1, to begin deleting branches that have been
untouched for over a year.  I will do this in waves, starting with the oldest.
This morning, I made a clone fo the repository with all the now-deleted
branches intact.  I'll probably make a new one before I begin that July round
of purging and then put that on GitHub as an archive, just in case.  (I would
feel bad if Father Chrysostomos came back and said he had no other copy of some
of his old but maybe-useful branches.)
