That is: "Eat more $pies->@{ $x }" will interpolate $pies and @$x but also warn. User can eliminate the warning by changing their code to read "Eat more $pies\->@{ $x }".
I would like to hereby a branch that makes this happen. I believe the work (at a very high level) is:
* add a deprecation warning when the "no feature 'postderef_qq'" behavior is triggered
* make sure the perldiag entry indicates how to fix the error while keeping the old behavior
* test updates
