From: William Lyu <william....@windriver.com>
When perl-modules is added via COMPLEMENTARY_GLOB, all perl-module-*
packages recommended by perl-modules are ignored due to the defined
behavior of COMPLEMENTARY_GLOB.
This patch creates a new package perl-modules-force-all that RDEPENDS on
the same set of packages perl-modules recommends. If another recipe
always needs the packages recommended by perl-modules, it can add
perl-modules-force-all to RDEPENDS to make sure that the recommended
packages by perl-modules are not ignored by COMPLEMENTARY_GLOB.
