Please unblock package libanyevent-i3-perl

libanyevent-i3-perl provides an API to communicate with the i3 window
manager (popcon of i3-wm is ~400 installations). It will typically be
used by custom / third-party scripts or oneliners.

With the version currently in testing (0.08-1), one needs to explicitly
specify the UNIX domain socket path to connect to. This is cumbersome
and error-prone and a configuration option or detection mechanism needs
to be implemented in each custom script. For that reason, in the
upstream version 0.12, the module will automatically determine the
socket path.

Since the change is well-tested and will make the live of third-party
developers and users of i3 considerably easier, I would like you to
unblock this please.

In case you are wondering, the version differs in "big steps" because a
few iterations were necessary to get the module working properly when
Perl’s taint mode is enabled, see the git log:
http://code.stapelberg.de/git/AnyEvent-I3

The changes to the packaging itself are minimal and mostly cosmetic:
